What is Machine Learning?
Machine learning aims to produce machines that can learn from their experiences and make predictions based on those experiences and other data they have analyzed. The Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech (ML@GT) is an Interdisciplinary Research Center that is both a home for thought leaders and practitioners and a training ground for the next generation of pioneers.
The field of machine learning crosses a wide variety of disciplines that use data to find patterns in the ways both living systems, such as the human body and artificial systems, such as robots, are constructed and perform. Whether it’s being applied to analyze and learn from medical data, or to model financial markets, or to create autonomous vehicles, machine learning builds and learns from both algorithm and theory to understand the world around us and create the tools we need and want.

Researchers Say AI Copyright Cases Could Have Negative Impact on Academic Research
Two years since OpenAI introduced ChatGPT, dozens of lawsuits have been filed alleging technology companies have infringed copyright by using published works to train artificial intelligence (AI) models.
Academic AI research efforts could be significantly hindered if courts rule in the plaintiffs' favor.
Desai and Riedl are Georgia Tech researchers raising awareness about how these court rulings could force academic researchers to construct new AI models with limited training data. The two collaborated on a benchmark academic paper that examines the landscape of the ethical issues surrounding AI and copyright in industry and academic spaces.
