Artificial intelligence (AI), in its simplest definition, is the ability for machines to utilize data to solve problems, spot patterns or make judgments like a human would. It combines computer science with robust datasets to problem-solve or carry out a function. The field encompasses machine learning and deep learning, which are comprised of AI algorithms that make predictions or classifications based on data.

Today the term is used mainly to describe a suite of machine learning-powered technologies that let computers process voice commands, generate text, drive cars, analyze data and write computer code, among other things.

AI is being used in a broad range of industries including healthcare, retail, finance, transportation and manufacturing to automate tasks, find useful data patterns, increase production output and contribute to the improvement of all kinds of systems and operations.

Studying AI can include a wide range of things. You can take part in bootcamps, online courses, and study statistics, math, and programming by learning coding languages like Python. Exploring data science and manipulation, machine learning and how to use AI tools and frameworks would also be important.

Enrolling in academic programs with AI-integrated coursework, like those available at DeVry could also be a step in the right direction. At DeVry, our Bachelor’s Degree with a Specialization in Big Data and Analytics can give you experience with some online AI courses, as well as classes that can help you gain an understanding of how data mining, predictive analytics and machine learning tools influence change and drive decision-making in today’s Internet of Things economy.
