MLG 002 Difference Between Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science

Show notes at ocdevel.com/mlg/2 Updated! Skip to [00:29:36] for Data Science (new content) if you've already heard this episode. What is artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science? What are their differences? AI history. Hierarchical breakdown: DS(AI(ML)). Data science: any profession dealing with data (including AI & ML). Artificial intelligence is simulated intellectual tasks. Machine Learning is algorithms trained on data to learn patterns to make predictions. Artificial Intelligence (AI) - Wikipedia Oxford Languages: the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages. AlphaGo Movie, very good! Sub-disciplines Reasoning, problem solving Knowledge representation Planning Learning Natural language processing Perception Motion and manipulation Social intelligence General intelligence Applications Autonomous vehicles (drones, self-driving cars) Medical diagnosis Creating art (such as poetry) Proving mathematical theorems Playing games (such as Chess or Go) Search engines Online assistants (such as Siri) Image recognition in photographs Spam filtering Prediction of judicial decisions Targeting online advertisements Machine Learning (ML) - Wikipedia Oxford Languages: the use and development of computer systems that are able to learn and adapt without following explicit instructions, by using algorithms and statistical models to analyze and draw inferences from patterns in data. Data Science (DS) - Wikipedia Wikipedia: Data science is an interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from noisy, structured and unstructured data, and apply knowledge and actionable insights from data across a broad range of application domains. Data science is related to data mining, machine learning and big data. History Greek mythology, Golums First attempt: Ramon Lull, 13th century Davinci's walking animals Descartes, Leibniz 1700s-1800s: Statistics & Mathematical decision making Thomas Bayes: reasoning about the probability of events George Boole: logical reasoning / binary algebra Gottlob Frege: Propositional logic 1832: Charles Babbage & Ada Byron / Lovelace: designed Analytical Engine (1832), programmable mechanical calculating machines 1936: Universal Turing Machine Computing Machinery and Intelligence - explored AI! 1946: John von Neumann Universal Computing Machine 1943: Warren McCulloch & Walter Pitts: cogsci rep of neuron; Frank Rosemblatt uses to create Perceptron (-> neural networks by way of MLP) 50s-70s: "AI" coined @Dartmouth workshop 1956 - goal to simulate all aspects of intelligence. John McCarthy, Marvin Minksy, Arthur Samuel, Oliver Selfridge, Ray Solomonoff, Allen Newell, Herbert Simon Newell & Simon: Hueristics -> Logic Theories, General Problem Solver Slefridge: Computer Vision NLP Stanford Research Institute: Shakey Feigenbaum: Expert systems GOFAI / symbolism: operations research / management science; logic-based; knowledge-based / expert systems 70s: Lighthill report (James Lighthill), big promises -> AI Winter 90s: Data, Computation, Practical Application -> AI back (90s) Connectionism optimizations: Geoffrey Hinton: 2006, optimized back propagation Bloomberg, 2015 was whopper for AI in industry AlphaGo & DeepMind
