What do you mean by that statement? The only thing ML can do with a decision question is report "maybe" with some confidence. For example, "I am 98.3% sure this image has a cat in it, with respect to the data sets I was trained on" or "I am 77% confident this source code misuses a web request API, given the examples and non-examples of misuse that you have shown me."
