What does Bayes' Theorem state?
Bayes' Theorem is a mathematical formula used to calculate conditional probability — that is, the probability of an event occurring given that another related event has already occurred or is known to be true. It expresses how prior knowledge or evidence about one event can be used to update the probability of a related event. This aligns with the idea that if something is established as true, something related to it becomes more (or less) probable, rather than concepts like fixed measurement scales or exponential growth in processing power.
