Deep learning is a specialized branch of machine learning that uses artificial neural networks inspired by the structure of the human brain. It enables computers to automatically learn and extract complex patterns from large amounts of data without explicit programming. Deep learning powers many modern AI applications, including speech recognition, image classification, autonomous driving, and natural language processing. Its effectiveness depends on vast datasets, high computational power, and multi-layered neural architectures that improve through iterative training. As deep learning models evolve, they continue to drive breakthroughs in generative AI, predictive analytics, and advanced automation.
