- [Narrator] We're going to get started working with Amazon Machine Learning APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces. So what are these? They are a set of tools that allow you to work with machine learning in an easy way. You can get up and running pretty quickly. You'll see when we start working with the specific APIs. They consist of an algorithm or a set of algorithms plus importantly, Amazon's own labeled data models. So let's make this concrete. One of the APIs is recognition, and what this does is image labeling along a number of different feature vectors. So specifically it can do things like identify faces in photos.
