Short answer
Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence in which algorithms learn patterns from data to make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed for each case. Models improve as they process more examples. In marketing, machine learning powers bid optimization, audience targeting, recommendations, churn prediction, and fraud detection across most major ad platforms.
