In simple words, Artificial Intelligence is a software which is the simulation of human intelligence. where intelligence is nothing but the ability to accomplish complex goals. This was broad enough to include all the definition on the internet, since understanding, self-awareness, problem-solving learning, etc are included complex goals.

It is always fun when a company advertises their product as “powered by AI and Machine Learning”. Are AI and Machine learning entirely two different things? Does AI have its own algorithm? Let’s discuss.

I always feel that AI is a superset, Subsets are Machine learning, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Vision system. So when someone says Powered by AI doesn’t that mean they use the concept of ML or NLP. Should they promote their product treating AI and ML as a different entity? let me know your thoughts.

PS: No offense to any firm in particular, Just my thoughts in the marketing strategy of a few companies.
