Human beings and Machine Learning

Human beings learn from experiences.
Human beings learn from experiences through a process of observation, interpretation, and internalization. When we encounter new situations or information, our brains try to make sense of them by comparing them to our existing knowledge and beliefs. This process helps us understand and remember what we've learned. 

Additionally, experiences often involve some form of feedback, which helps reinforce or adjust our understanding of the world. This feedback can come from our own reflections, interactions with others, or the consequences of our actions. 

Over time, these experiences and the lessons we draw from them shape our thoughts, behaviors, and decision-making processes.

Machine on the other hand follows instructions. Machines learn from instructions and data through a process known as machine learning. 

In machine learning, algorithms are used to analyze data and learn patterns, which are then used to make predictions or decisions. 

Here's a simplified explanation of how this process works:

1. Data Collection: Relevant data is collected, which could include examples of past experiences, images, text, or any other type of information that the machine will learn from.

2. Data Preprocessing: The data is cleaned and formatted to make it suitable for analysis. This may involve removing irrelevant information, handling missing values, and standardizing the data.

3. Model Training: The machine learning model is trained using the preprocessed data. During training, the model learns the underlying patterns in the data by adjusting its internal parameters.

4. Model Evaluation: The trained model is evaluated using a separate set of data called the validation set. This helps assess how well the model has learned and generalizes from the training data.

5. Model Deployment: Once the model is trained and evaluated, it can be deployed to make predictions or decisions on new, unseen data.

6. Feedback Loop: In some cases, the model's performance on new data is used as feedback to further improve the model. This iterative process is known as "learning from feedback" or "online learning."

To cap it all, machine learning enables machines to improve their performance on a task by learning from both instructions (in the form of the algorithm) and data.

The world needs the Gifts and Skills that only you have

 TAP THE UNTAPPED. RELEASE THE RESERVOIR. Learn more at the Ransford Online School. Your life has the potential to fulfill your purpose. If, however, you imprison that potential, you rob your life of its purpose and fulfillment.  You and every other individual on this planet possess an awesome treasure. Too much of this treasure is buried every day, untapped and untouched, in the cemeteries of our world.  Much talent, skill and creativity have been lost to the world for want of a little courage. Many obscure men and women enter eternity pregnant with potential, with a still-born purpose. Living with ability brings responsibility. Dying with ability reveals irresponsibility. Everything in creation was designed to function on the simple principle of receiving and releasing. Life depends on this principle.  What if the plants refused to release the oxygen they possess or if we human beings refused to release the carbon dioxide we produce?  The result would be chaos...

Worldview Matters

Worldviews are rules, values, beliefs and biases that an individual customer brings to buying situation.  If Jude got completely screwed the last time he bought a car from a used-car salesman, the worldview he has when visiting a dealership four years later is a little different than that of someone who is buying her third car in four years from the same place. If Nkechi sees her job as purchasing agent for a big company as one where she should avoid risks, she’ll view that new salesperson in her office very differently than if her understanding of her job is that she should cut costs by innovating and trying new alternatives. Different people, different worldviews. People can see the same data and make a totally different decision. Worldview Affects What's bought ! People don’t buy what we sell. They buy or want to buy what it will do for them. They want the way it will make them feel. What we sell is a means to an end. They are roads to achieve...
