What is AI/ML?

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Think of AI as teaching computers to act like humans — making decisions, solving problems,
recognizing faces, understanding voice commands, etc.

Machine Learning (ML)

ML is a subset of AI. It’s like training a student with examples. The more you show, the better they
perform.

Example: If you show a child 100 photos of dogs and cats, they learn to tell the difference. ML
models do the same — you give them data, and they learn from it.

Who is an AI/ML Engineer?

An AI/ML engineer is someone who:

• Teaches computers to learn from data

• Builds systems that predict outcomes

• Works with data, models, and software

Example: The person who helps Netflix suggest what movie you’ll like next — that’s an ML
engineer’s job.

What Does an AI/ML Engineer Do? (Simple Terms)

Task What It Means Example

Collect Data Find useful data to learn from Netflix uses your watch history

Clean the Data Fix messy or missing information Filling in missing movie ratings

Teach a computer to understand Predicting whether you’ll like a new


Train a Model
patterns movie

Seeing if the model gives correct movie


Test the Model Check how good the model is
suggestions

Deploy the
Make it work in real life (on website/app) Add it to the Netflix app
Model

Improve the Update it when it makes mistakes or new Improve recommendations after your
Model data comes taste changes
What Do You Need to Learn?

Let’s start from zero to intermediate level.

1. Learn Python (The Main Language)

• Easy to write and read.

• Helps with logic and automation.

Example: Writing a small program to check if a number is odd or even.

2. Learn Math Basics (Don’t worry!)

• Linear Algebra: Think of working with grids (used in images).

• Probability: Helps models “guess” better.

• Statistics: Helps you understand data.

Example: Imagine predicting how many people will like an Instagram post based on past likes —
you need math!

3. Learn Machine Learning

You’ll learn:

• Regression (predict numbers)

• Classification (yes/no answers)

• Clustering (grouping similar things)

Example: Predict if a delivery will be late (classification) or how long it will take (regression).

4. Learn Libraries & Tools

• Pandas: To work with data

• Scikit-learn: To build ML models

• Matplotlib/Seaborn: For graphs

Example: Make a chart of your friends’ favorite songs using Python.

Real-Life Use Cases

Industry AI/ML Application Example

Health Predict if a patient has diabetes

Banking Detect credit card fraud

Education Recommend courses based on student’s past behavior


Industry AI/ML Application Example

E-commerce Show “You may also like” products

Simple Project Ideas to Start With

1. Spam or Not Spam — Use email texts to detect spam.

2. House Price Predictor — Based on area, bedrooms, etc.

3. Movie Recommender — Suggest movies based on user choices.

4. Digit Recognizer — Tell what number is written in an image.
