Deep learning (DL) has revolutionized industry after industry. It was once famously described by Andrew Ng on Twitter:
Artificial Intelligence is the new electricity!
Electricity transformed countless industries; artificial intelligence (AI) will now do the same.
AI and DL are used like synonyms, but there are substantial differences between the two. Let's demystify the terminology used in the industry so that you, as a practitioner, will be able to differentiate between signal and noise.
In this chapter, we will cover the following different parts of AI:
- AI itself and its origination
- Machine learning in the real world
- Applications of deep learning
- Why deep learning now?
- Deep learning framework: PyTorch
