Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. It involves feeding data to algorithms, allowing them to learn and make predictions or decisions. From spam filtering in email to recommendation engines on streaming platforms, machine learning is ubiquitous in today's digital world.
Some popular machine learning algorithms include:
y = mx + c
, predicts a continuous value.Machine learning has a wide range of applications:
Speech recognition systems like virtual assistants.
Recommendation systems that suggest products or content.
Autonomous vehicles using machine learning to navigate.
Machine learning presents several challenges, including ensuring data privacy, avoiding bias in AI models, and understanding the ethical implications of automated decisions.
