Definition
Machine learning enables systems to improve performance on tasks through experience and data, rather than hand-coded rules. The system identifies patterns and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
Types
Supervised learning (learning from labeled data), unsupervised learning (finding structure in unlabeled data), and reinforcement learning (learning through feedback and rewards).
In AI Governance
ML systems require monitoring for performance degradation, bias introduction through training data, and unintended behavioral shifts as real-world data differs from training data.
