Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that enables computers to learn from data and improve their performance over time without being explicitly programmed. Instead of following fixed rules, machine learning systems identify patterns and make predictions or decisions based on experience. It powers many familiar tools, including recommendation systems, spam filters, and AI writing assistants like Copilot. In education, machine learning supports adaptive learning platforms and personalized feedback systems. Understanding machine learning helps educators and students recognize how AI tools function and why their results may vary or evolve over time.
