AI basics
AI Dictionary
Machine Learning
The way most AI learns: by finding patterns in examples instead of following hand-written rules.
You show a system many examples, and it adjusts itself until it can make good predictions on new ones. Deep learning is machine learning with large neural networks.
Example
A model learns what water looks like in motion by studying thousands of videos.
Why it matters to you
It's the foundation behind almost every AI tool today.
