Dataset drift detection is a silly idea

The whole point of model based machine learning, or modelling as a method of understanding the world, is that your model can generalize.

From practical point of view, generalized model can perform well on unseen (even drifted) data.

From understanding point of view, genralized model encapsulate what man think how the world works.

Focus on making your model genenalizing well.
