It's a lot like random discoveries in drugs where there are many candidates and only some meet the criteria then the exact mechanism is discovered later. But ML does this at much larger scale and candidate "drugs" are progressively improved by past attempts.
I think of it more like making aliens. We are building an environment (ie criteria) then stepping away to see what evolves to meet it.
