Glossary for Listeners

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the creation of computer systems that can perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence. This includes recognizing speech, making decisions, and learning from data. Imagine a smart assistant like Siri or Alexa—they use AI to understand and respond to your requests.

Machine Learning (ML)

• A subset of AI focused on developing algorithms that allow computers to learn from and make predictions or decisions based on data.

Neural Networks

• Computational models inspired by the human brain, consisting of interconnected nodes (neurons) that process information in layers to recognize patterns and make decisions.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

• A branch of AI that enables machines to understand, interpret, and respond to human language in a natural way, including tasks like translation, sentiment analysis, and chatbots.

Deep Learning

• A type of machine learning involving neural networks with many layers (deep neural networks), which excel at analyzing large datasets and performing complex tasks such as image and speech recognition.

Adversarial Attacks

• Techniques used to deceive AI models by introducing malicious input, causing the model to make incorrect predictions or classifications, highlighting vulnerabilities in AI systems.
