What Is Machine Learning And How Does It Work?

Machine Learning is all around us and we experience it everyday. It is an important part of our daily lives, shaping our society, culture and even our future. It affects how we work, socialize and play.

Machine Learning is everywhere. We are already using it and it is augmenting our lives now and moving into the future. But how does Machine Learning really work? What about Artificial Intelligence? How is it different from Machine Learning?

Well, the easiest way to put it is that Artificial Intelligence describes the science behind intelligent computers that mimic human functions. Most people would say that Netflix and Facebook use AI. But Machine Learning is the technology that we use to teach the computers how to mimic human functions. Machine Learning uses algorithms to create immersive, interactive experiences between technology and humans, transforming and personalizing our connection to technology by automating tasks that are typically repetitive, or tasks that we’re unable to do. It can analyze huge amounts of information within text, video, and images. You’re already interacting with Machine Learning everyday, and it is going to continue to shape your world and help you connect with your friends, family, and work. Watch this video I created about Machine Learning and how it work.
