Can someone explain what machine learning can do to the extreme ?
I feel like every time AI or models are talked about it becomes a recurring use of automation like emails and inventory or accounting practices (maybe I’m just not up to speed or ignorant if so send some interesting links) but I guess the general idea is we are feeding large amounts of data to these machines and getting “better” or like “sufficient enough” results back. My question is why couldn’t humans come to the same conclusion based off the same data. If geniuses couldn’t figure it out then why would a machine come to the conclusion , a better way to frame this question would be if our data sucked to begin with why would a machine take this crappy data and make a better conclusion.
I know time is money and automating emails is like cool but this idea of ai being so revolutionary is a lot it’s cool but I feel like if ai is truly what people are pouring their lives into changing the scope of society as a hole I want to see it happen. “Ai makes X-Ray discoveries and new medicines etc” like ok cool but why couldn’t humans do that , machine smarter than humans ? What data was used to make that possible ? And why couldn’t we use that data to make the same discovery. I’m just confused and wondering what is machine learning truly trying to accomplish?
