Researchers have demonstrated that a concept class of Borel sets with a VC dimension of one can exist without guaranteeing PAC learnability, even with a consistent learning rule. This finding, achieved within Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with the Axiom of Choice (ZFC), removes the necessity of the Continuum Hypothesis previously thought to be required for such a demonstration. The work shows that finite VC dimension and Borel measurability alone are insufficient to ensure PAC learnability for all proper consistent learning rules. AI
