After years and years of research and development, AI is a rapidly expanding field. As consumer-level computer hardware becomes more and more powerful, developers are finding new and exciting ways to implement ever complex forms of AI in all kinds of applications. One such AI concept is Neural Networks, a subset of machine learning that we mentioned in the previous section. Neural Networks enable computers to "learn", and through repeated training become more and more efficient and effective at solving any number of problems. A very popular exercise for testing Neural Network machine learning is teaching an AI how to discern the value of a set of handwritten numbers.
In what we call supervised learning, we provide our Neural ...
