As we move towards robust digitization, the entire ecosystem is undergoing a massive transformation. When it comes to technologies — artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning are booming across multiple industries. 

Many people use all these three terms by interchanging, however, all the three technologies are different and have distinctive characteristics. If you are also curious to know more about all these three modern technologies then we have you covered. In this post, we will have a look at all advancements and understand them comprehensively. 

Artificial intelligence

AI is an advanced algorithm that attempts to learn and copy how human brains work, think, and function. The algorithms collect as much data, knowledge, and patterns as possible to process and then mimic them with higher accuracy. Humans' brains are complicated and scientists are trying to understand them comprehensively. 

AI is not new and this technology is quite advanced over a couple of years. To make hardware and software smarter to save time, AI is playing a pivotal role. On a surface level, engineers use AI to create a program rule that defines the machine to work in a particular way in specific circumstances. So, in simple terms, AI is an advanced set of codes that react to certain situations and perform certain operations. 

There are four different approaches that define this technology. These four approaches are thinking humanly, thinking rationally, acting humanly, and acting rationally. In the first two categories, the core concepts are based on thoughts processing and deep reasoning. On the other hand, the other two approaches deal with behavior and in-depth patterns. In addition to this, there are four types of artificial intelligence that cover the entire ecosystem. 

Reactive Machines

Reactive machines work on the fundamental concepts of AI in which the machine algorithm can use intelligence to understand and react to the world. In this model, the machine can't store memory and thus, it can't store and rely on past experiences to make informed decisions. 

Limited Memory

Limited memory AI can store all the previous predictions and when collecting data and weighing possible choices, it looks into the past datasets to predict what may come next. Limited memory artificial intelligence is more difficult and presents more comprehensive opportunities than reactive machines.

Theory of Mind

Theory of mind as the name suggests is entirely theoretical and this model is based on the psychological premise of understanding other objects. As of now, we have not reached this level of advancement that offers the capability to understand thoughts and emotions. It's the next level of AI which produces emotions along with future outcomes. 

Machine Learning

ML is an advanced application of AI that gives systems the capability to automatically acquire, study, learn and improve from reality experiences without the need to be programmed by engineers. ML concentrates on the expansion of computer programs that can obtain data and utilize it to learn on their selves.

The method of training and learning begins with observations or with the raw data. Some of the aspects of the data include instructions, direct experience, examples. Using this data, the machine learning algorithm looks for patterns and tries to match them with the data that is already stored in their database. 

The main goal of ML is to allow the machines to learn on their own without human interference or support and adjust their actions accordingly depending on the situation. Compared to AI, ML is a more advanced application that takes the ability of machines to learn on a much higher level. 

The four major ML methods are supervised machine learning algorithms, unsupervised machine learning algorithms, semi-supervised machine learning algorithms, and reinforcement machine learning algorithms.

Deep Learning

Deep Learning is the latest and the most powerful subfield of machine learning which makes AI even more powerful by creating artificial neural networks. This advancement can be seen as a subpart of ML as deep learning algorithms also need information and data sets in order to learn to detect, process and solve tasks. Therefore, the names of machine learning and deep learning are often used as the same. However, both systems have a different set of capabilities. 

Deep learning utilizes a multi-layered arrangement of algorithms called the neural network. Artificial neural networks possess unparalleled capabilities that let deep learning patterns solve tasks that machine learning algorithms could never solve.

This advancement is more rapid, quick to process data, and deliver the most accurate results that solve several problems that otherwise would need to be done manually. 

Final Thoughts

All three technologies are the future of internet advancement and there are hundreds of applications that industries are leveraging. In the upcoming time, we will see more advanced implementations of these three technologies to make our lives easier.
