    What is artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science? What are their differences? AI history.
    Hierarchical breakdown: DS(AI(ML)). Data science: any profession dealing with data (including AI & ML). Artificial intelligence is simulated intellectual tasks. Machine Learning is algorithms trained on data to learn patterns to make predictions.
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) - Wikipedia Oxford Languages: the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.
    AlphaGo Movie, very good!
    Sub-disciplines
    Reasoning, problem solving Knowledge representation Planning Learning Natural language processing Perception Motion and manipulation Social intelligence General intelligence Applications
    Autonomous vehicles (drones, self-driving cars) Medical diagnosis Creating art (such as poetry) Proving mathematical theorems Playing games (such as Chess or Go) Search engines Online assistants (such as Siri) Image recognition in photographs Spam filtering Prediction of judicial decisions Targeting online advertisements Machine Learning (ML) - Wikipedia Oxford Languages: the use and development of computer systems that are able to learn and adapt without following explicit instructions, by using algorithms and statistical models to analyze and draw inferences from patterns in data.
    Data Science (DS) - Wikipedia Wikipedia: Data science is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from noisy, structured and unstructured data, and apply knowledge and actionable insights from data across a broad range of application domains. Data science is related to data mining, machine learning and big data.

One of the best series. Listen to this every night!!

This podcast has been my daily routine for a while. I’ve been trying to finish Andrew Ng course but really haven’t got much time to do so lately. This podcast helps me to gain some basic insides so next time when I come across the concepts, my memory gots reinforced. Also I love how the host always use interesting analogy to help understanding. And I really like how he doesn’t use loud sound effects in the middle when I listen to sleep. Please keep going with your amazing work!!

Fantastic

This is a great podcast - everything is explained clearly, and it has helped me to understand these topics at a high level. I would recommend it to anyone as something to do on the side to compliment your course/study

Very good

I have listened to this on my journey to office and back. It is a good starter to learning Mahcine language
