> artificial intelligence (AI), a sub-branch of machine learning

I could have a failed mental model, but I'm under the impression that the relationship is the other way around. AI is a broad field encompassing various strategies to build intelligent machines. ML is one particular strategy where large volumes (think Big Data) of training data is used to teach by example. (Which makes Deep Learning a subset of ML, where "deep" neural networks are at play.)

It's actually neither way. AI and ML have some intersection. There're machine learning methods which have little to do with AI, for example, logistic regression. There're AI methods which have nothing to do with ML, for example, logical inference.
