CNN vs. RNN vs. ANN -- Analyzing 3 Types of Neural Networks in Deep Learning

There is no shortage of machine learning algorithms so why should a data scientist gravitate towards deep learning algorithms? What do neural networks offer that traditional machine learning algorithms don't? Another common question I see floating around -- neural networks require a ton of computing power, so is it really worth using them? While that question is laced with nuance, here's the short answer -- yes! The different types of neural networks in deep learning, such as convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), artificial neural networks (ANN), etc. are changing the way we interact with the world.
