Understanding the power of deep learning: A look this technology

Deep learning is a concept that most people know is valuable but do not understand. Global industries, however, are seeing it's worth and investing heavily in the technology; the global deep learning market is expected to reach $10.2 billion by 2025. What are the nuances and intricacies that make deep learning a practical solution to some of today's most complex problems? And how can this technology be understood by more, making it a less intimidating and more approachable topic? "One reason why deep learning is a confusing concept to many is that it is often used alongside the terms machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI). Deep learning (DL) is a subset of ML, which is itself a subset of AI," explains Jennifer Roubaud, the VP of UK and Ireland for Dataiku.
