This article is a summary of Chapter 1 of Simon J.D. Prince’s 'Understanding Deep Learning.'
The article covers the three main types of learning processes, AI, machine learning, and deep learning, along with their differences.
The article explains the machine learning model as some “black box” that performs some computation to the input and describes the math equation that best represents this process.
The author explains that almost anything in the world can be turned into mathematical data and turned into input data for deep learning models.
The article explains the outputs of deep learning models and the size of output vectors for different types of problems and also describes the importance of safe AI development.
The article mentions that the online course is a useful introductory resource to investigate ethical issues in AI further.
The article mentions that in the next few chapters, specific algorithms that lead to predictions and mathematical notations used to represent them will be covered.
