What is machine learning?

Machine learning

Machine learning is the science of making AI learn and act like a human, and make it continuously improve its learning and abilities based on the real-world data we provide.
Here is how representatives of leading IT companies and research centers define machine learning:

Nvidia: "It's the practice of using algorithms to analyze data, study it, and then determine or predict something."

Stanford University: "It's the science of making computers work without being explicitly programmed."

McKinsey & Co: "Machine learning is based on algorithms that can learn from data without relying on programming based on basic rules."

University of Washington: "Machine learning algorithms can figure out how to do important tasks by generalizing from the examples they have."

Carnegie Mellon University: “The field of machine learning is trying to answer the question: “How can we create computer systems that automatically improve with experience and what are the fundamental laws that govern all learning processes?”
