AI training involves teaching an artificial intelligence model to make accurate predictions or decisions. It learns by analysing large volumes of training data, identifying patterns, and adjusting its internal settings like numerical weights to improve its predictions. Throughout training the AI compares its predictions to known correct answers, refining itself over millions of cycles to reduce errors. However it’s important to remember: AI doesn’t understand its tasks the way a human would. It is simply refining its pattern recognition. ...
