Machine learning is a form of artificial intelligence that involves giving computers and machines the ability to learn from data, identify patterns and make decisions with minimal human intervention. It uses data-driven algorithms and computer models to learn from data and automate decisions to develop solutions. Machine learning has applications in many industries, including healthcare, finance, retail, education, and manufacturing. It is used for tasks like automated personalized recommendation systems, fraud and anomaly detection, natural language processing and image recognition.
