The fundamental goal of AI is to develop algorithms and models that allow machines to mimic human behavior or even surpass it in certain specific areas.
How does it achieve this?
The key lies in algorithms: mathematical and logical instructions that allow machines to identify patterns, make decisions, and improve over time. These algorithms form the heart of two fundamental areas:
Machine Learning: These are programs that learn from data without needing to be constantly reprogrammed. For example, a system that learns to recognize suspicious emails.
Deep Learning: A more advanced technique that uses artificial neural networks (inspired by the human brain) to understand complex patterns such as images, speech, or language.
