A Math3ma Institute Lecture __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Learning has been at the forefront of human activity for thousands of years. Machine learning, a much newer field, has recently gained popularity and gotten much attention in the media and in conversations around us. In this talk, I will define machine learning, describe its different branches, and explain how it works. I will also answer some of the concerns and questions that people have about the future of technology, especially as it relates to advances in machine learning. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aimed at a general audience, The Math3ma Institute Public Lectures are engaging and accessible talks by TMU faculty and colleagues on a wide range of topics in mathematics, engineering, science, and technology, all from a Biblical perspective. All lectures are free and open
