The Formal Theorem

Var \ge 1/I

Analytical Intuition.

The Cramer-Rao Bound is the Uncertainty Principle of stats. There is a fundamental limit to precision, no matter how clever the math. Precision is limited by Fisher Information?a measure of what the data knows.

CAUTION

Institutional Warning.

Fisher Information is the curvature of likelihood. Sharp curve means high information and low error bound.
