Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a way of making a computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a software think intelligently, in the similar manner the intelligent humans think. A major thrust of AI is in the development of computer functions associated with human intelligence, such as reasoning, learning, and problem solving. Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning (ML) focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it learn for themselves.
