Overview

Machine learning (ML) enables systems to learn patterns from data without explicit
programming, powering advancements in AI.

Key Algorithms

Supervised Learning: Uses labeled data (e.g., spam filters trained on email
datasets).

Unsupervised Learning: Identifies clusters in unlabeled data (e.g., customer


segmentation).

Neural Networks: Deep learning models excel in image recognition (e.g., CNNs in
medical imaging).

Applications

Natural Language Processing (NLP): Chatbots like ChatGPT leverage transformer


architectures.

Predictive Analytics: Forecasting stock trends or disease outbreaks.

Ethical Considerations

Bias: Training data reflecting societal biases can perpetuate discrimination.

Transparency: "Black box" models in healthcare or criminal justice raise


accountability concerns.

Critical Thinking Questions

How can bias mitigation be integrated into ML pipelines?

Should governments regulate AI development to prevent misuse?
