Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI):
Definition:
AI refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and mimic human-like cognitive functions such as problem-solving, learning, perception, reasoning, and language understanding.
Types of AI:
Narrow AI (Weak AI): AI systems designed and trained for a particular task, such as voice assistants or image recognition.
General AI (Strong AI): Hypothetical AI that possesses the ability to understand, learn, and apply knowledge across diverse tasks at a level comparable to human intelligence. General AI does not currently exist.
Machine Learning (ML):
Definition:
ML is a subset of AI that involves the development of algorithms and statistical models that enable computers to perform tasks without explicit programming. It focuses on the development of techniques that allow systems to learn from data.
Types of Machine Learning:
Supervised Learning: The algorithm is trained on a labeled dataset, where each input is associated with the corresponding correct output.
Unsupervised Learning: The algorithm is given data without explicit instructions on what to do with it, and it must find patterns or relationships within the data.
Reinforcement Learning: The algorithm learns by interacting with its environment and receiving feedback in the form of rewards or penalties.
Semi-Supervised Learning: A combination of supervised and unsupervised learning, where the algorithm is trained on a dataset that contains both labeled and unlabeled data.
