Keys to a More Advanced Future: Machine Learning and Deep Learning - PROPRIUS

Ask anyone who knows a bit about technology, and you'll more than likely hear them say a few things about machine learning and/or deep learning. These two concepts are catapulting artificial intelligence into strata never seen before, and sometimes it seems as though they are the same thing – but look closely and it becomes clear that they are two different beasts, and both must be tamed before artificial intelligence achieves its next breakthrough. At its simplest, it is possible to describe machine learning as a process by which machines use algorithms to take in data, learn from that data, and use what they've learned to make more nuanced, informed decisions. This involves a great deal of data and usually brings machine and social networking into the picture. For example, music streaming services are capable of looking at what you listen to, finding other users who listen to the same music, and suggesting more music for you based upon the preferences of users similar to yourself.
