Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the simulation of human intelligence by machines. Machine Learning (ML) is a subfield of AI.

Key Concepts

  • AI: Systems or machines that perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence (reasoning, learning, and decision-making).
  • Machine Learning: Algorithms that allow computers to learn from data and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed.
  • Deep Learning: A subset of ML using multi-layered artificial neural networks; it powers image recognition, speech synthesis, and LLMs.
  • Large Language Models (LLMs): AI models trained on vast amounts of text data to generate human-like text (e.g., GPT-4, Claude, Gemini).
  • ChatGPT (developed by OpenAI, released in November 2022) became one of the fastest-growing consumer applications in history.
  • Coined Term: The term "Artificial Intelligence" was coined by John McCarthy in 1956 during the Dartmouth workshop.
