machine that exhibits traits associated
with a human mind such as learning
and problem-solving.

33. What is ai? (1/3)
COMPUTER SCIENCE (CS)
The study of automating algorithmic processes that scale. A computer scientist specializes in the theory of computation and the design of
computational systems
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence exhibited by machines. An ideal "intelligent" machine is a flexible rational
agent that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at some goal
MACHINE LEARNING (ML)
The study and construction of algorithms that can learn from and make predictions on data
DEEP LEARNING (DL)
Deep learning is a branch of machine learning based on a set of algorithms that attempt to model high-
level abstractions in data by using a deep graph with multiple processing layers, composed of multiple
linear and non-linear transformations.
AI has become a buzzword. It is often used alongside terms like Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Neural
Networks etc. It is important to understand how these terms are interrelated.
