-
4
exploring machine learning, a form of artificial intelligence where an algorithm is trained using a data set, for example to classify images into categories
-
5
adjusting parameters of an AI model to observe the impact of different factors on predicted outcomes; for example, changing the weighting of different input variables to see how much it changes the model's outputs
