Machine learning (ML) is a part of the AI field (artificial intelligence). Machine learning allows computer systems to 'learn' from the data and statistics that we provide to it. The interviewer knows that the better you understand ML, the easier it will be for you to explain the concept to someone outside of the industry, who may not be as tech savvy as you are. Try preparing a 2-3 sentence 'elevator pitch' on what machine learning is. Keep your reply as simple as possible, and give an example if possible.
