As was mentioned, sci-ml would be confusing with Meta-Language. The term "AI" has a very long and storied history, and covers the entire field of machine learning and then some. I think 'sci-ai' is most fitting as a result (and, besides also being more fitting, it also is not ambiguous). -- Arsen Arsenović
