Yeah this is a bad meme. The whole point of machine learning is to do minutely different things over millions of generations to see differences and their effects. It's the exact opposite of doing the same thing and expecting different results. Machine learning is the summation of millions of differences.

Or do the same thing in a very slightly different way each time until you accidentally discover a good enough way to do it?

yeah, it's an AA slogan, and a stupid self-contradictory one, too (like a lot of things in AA/NA). like, i guess i should never practice anything expecting to improve? so much for my piano lessons and weight training!
