Machine learning is a fascinating technology that is starting to have a tremendous influence on our economy. It is both penetrating new industries and reaching users in new parts of the world.
Arthur Samuel created the first machine learning program nearly 70 years ago. At the time, machine learning was only able to help machines learn to be better at playing checkers. Today, it is used in every industry from healthcare to financial analysis and law enforcement. Machine learning technology was originally only available in countries with advanced computing technology, but it is now reaching other corners of the globe.
IBM recognizes that machine learning is essential to developing economies. They have recently developed a new machine learning course for Spanish programmers.
This new course is the first to have profound implications for the global technology revolution. The World Economic Forum has stated that artificial intelligence is a major driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Its effect can be seen in homes, businesses and even public spaces. In its embodied form of robots, it will soon be driving cars, stocking warehouses and caring for the young and elderly. AI holds the promise of solving some of society’s most pressing issues, but also presents challenges such as inscrutable black box algorithms, unethical use of data and potential job displacement, the WE Forum writes.
The globalization and acceleration of machine learning advances hinge on machine learning experts sharing knowledge with their colleagues abroad. The machine learning course that IBM recently released is the first of its kind and will help programmers in emerging economies develop marketing automation technology and other AI tools. Future machine learning courses should be even more beneficial to artificial intelligence programmers in non-English-speaking regions.
IBM Brings Machine Learning Education to Other Parts of the World
Machine Learning is critical to the future of artificial intelligence. A company called edX has just uploaded a course that was created by IBM. It is completely free and available in Spanish.
The course is a practical introduction to the basic concepts of Machine Learning with Python. Python is one of the most accessible programming languages and it is the favorite of many programmers.
The course, which is available on the edX online education platform, is called Machine Learning with Python: a practical introduction. This is the first IBM course available in Spanish on edX. There are already several machine learning courses on the platform, but the others were from less well-known organizations. IBM has apparently decided that machine learning is an essential technology for organizations all over the world. The fact that they shared the new course in Spanish indicates that they want to share this knowledge with AI developers outside the United States to fuel advances in machine learning.
IBM and other organizations are likely to offer other educational materials to machine learning programmers in other parts of the world in the near future. The current course helps programmers understand the influence of machine learning and Python in a variety of applications. These principles are highlighted through real laboratories that allow students to add context to theoretical learning. It is a very practical introduction, but future courses will likely delve into greater detail to help programmers master the complex art of machine learning.
Some of the topics that are explored in the course include regression, clustering, classification and popular models such as quadratic median error and random forests. At the end of the course, students should have the necessary tools to handle supervised and unsupervised automatic learning, as well as understand the relationship between the statistical model and automatic learning.
The course has a duration of 5 weeks with an effort of 4 to 6 hours per week. It is dictated by Saeed Aghabozorgi, senior data scientist at IBM. It is completely free but students can get a certificate if they pay an additional fee.
Machine Learning Tutorials in Other Languages will Spread its Impact Around the World
Machine learning is a revolutionary technology that has already had a phenomenal impact on countless industries. New courses in other countries will make machine learning even more influential. IBM’s course should play an important role and there will probably be more courses in the months to come.
