What is AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a broad field of computer science focused on creating systems capable of performing tasks that would ordinarily require human intelligence. These tasks include problem-solving, speech recognition, planning, learning, and perception. There are 3 major subfields of Artificial Inteligence research.

Machine learning

A type of AI in which machines learn from existing data, then improve on that data to make decisions or predictions.

Deep learning

A type of machine learning in which layers of neural networks process data to make decisions.

Generative AI

A type of AI that can generate content, such as text, images or even music, autonomously and creatively.
