Glossary: Artificial Intelligence
Key AI terminology explained in simple terms:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the attempt to automate intelligent behaviour. The interplay between algorithms and data allows machines to learn, analyse and solve complex tasks that would usually require human intelligence. This technology enables machines to identify patterns, make decisions and solve problems. There are various different approaches and methods for developing intelligent systems.
Machine Learning (ML) is one of the best-known methods for developing AI applications. ML models are not programmed, but rather trained and further developed using data.
To this end, a suitable algorithm is consistently fed with available data until patterns are identified and the desired results are achieved. Following this training process, the model can be applied to new, unknown data in order to make predictions or take decisions.
