How does computer science relate to artificial intelligence and machine learning?
AI is a subfield of Computer Science.
Computer Science provides the foundational knowledge and skills required for developing AI and Machine Learning systems. It involves studying algorithms, data structures, programming languages, and computer systems architecture, critical components in developing AI and Machine Learning systems.
AI involves developing software that can perform unstructured or loosely structured tasks that typically require human intelligence. Areas of current focus for AI technologies include visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation.
Machine Learning is a component of AI that focuses on developing statistical models and computer algorithms that allow computer programs to learn from data, identify patterns, and make predictions based on such learning. Machine learning algorithms are used in various applications, including natural language processing, computer vision, recommendation systems, and predictive analytics.
