Quiz: Find out how smart you are about machine learning and AI

Machine learning and artificial intelligence have become mainstream methods of data analytics in the business world. And it's easy to see why: They enable businesses to create automated analytics engines that are capable of powering their way through large data sets, providing information not otherwise available and freeing up data scientists and analysts to work on more projects.

But that doesn't mean machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives are easy. While machine learning is an effective analytics technique when used correctly, there are big obstacles to implementing it and its related approaches, such as deep learning and the use of AI chatbots. Such complex analytics applications require in-depth data science skills, heavy amounts of data preparation work and a robust big data infrastructure -- a combination of needs that makes it a challenge for many businesses to begin using AI-based technologies.
