A Primer On Deep Learning

Unlike other machine learning algorithms, neural networks are also designed to be able to learn from their mistakes. This is another reason many deep-learning scientists believe we are finally beginning to develop machines that come close to what most people would consider artificial intelligence. Just like humans, machines can now make a prediction, act on that prediction and learn from that action, whether right or wrong. Like humans, this allows them to become more accurate over time as more decisions and feedback is collected. For the first time ever, neural networks are enabling human-like insight and learning in computers.
