Many people confuse Artificial Intelligence and machine learning and therefore use these terms interchangeably. Both artificial intelligence and machine learning deals with the computer science world but has a very different concept. In this blog, we look for basic difference between both these terms.

As the term suggests, ‘Artificial’ means man-made i.e. which is non-natural and is created by humans and ‘Intelligence’ means the power or ability to think or understand. Artificial intelligence is not a system, in fact it is implemented in a system. AI doesn’t only include making robots smart in fact if you are making a car, a washing machine, a refrigerator or a software smart then yes, it is AI. For example, problem-solving, speech recognition, learning and planning. Artificial intelligence is getting popular very quickly, affecting the way we live, helps in enhancing customer experience. There is a lot more to come in the growing years with more improvements and development.

Machine learning is the ability of the system to learn by experience without human interference. Now a days, machine learning is used alongside AI but they are not the same thing. ML is a subset of AI. ML is a system that gets smarter and smarter by themselves without any human effort. Now a days, most AI uses ML because intelligence requires knowledge and learning is the easiest way to get knowledge.
