What is Machine Learning (ML)?

Machine Learning is a branch of Artificial Intelligence that focuses on building technology that performs tasks or functions without being explicitly programmed on what to do, but by relying on data it receives, to improve or perform efficiently.

What is an ML Study Jam?

ML Study Jam is a learning opportunity that takes 4 weeks of time leveraging Kaggle Courses. It includes hands-on assignments, tutoring, tech talks, and group discussions. This is an excellent opportunity for members of the GDSC Uniuyo community together to learn something online.
