In our estimating equation above, our sample $\Bbb{X}$, $\Bbb{Y}$ are random (often due to human error). Hence, the estimates we calculate from our samples $\hat{\theta}$ are also random, so our predictor $\hat{Y}(x)$ is also random.

Now taking a look at our original equations, we can see that they both have differing sources of randomness. For our observed relationship, $Y = g(x) + \epsilon$, $\epsilon$ represents measurement errors and reflects randomness from the future. For the estimation model, the data we have is a random sample collected from the population, so the randomness from the past.
Now taking a look at our original equations, we can see that they both have differing sources of randomness. For our observed relationship, $Y = g(x) + \epsilon$, $\epsilon$ represents errors which occur during or after the observation or measurement process. For the estimation model, the data we have is a random sample collected from the population, which was constructed from decisions made before the measurement process.
