A system forecasts tomorrow's electricity demand from historical usage and weather data to set prices. Which AI workload type is this?
A.Computer vision
Computer vision processes images/video — this is numeric forecasting.
B.Machine learning (prediction/forecasting)
Regression-style forecasting = core ML workload. Correct.
C.Natural language processing
NLP handles text/speech, not numeric prediction.
D.Anomaly detection only
Anomaly detection flags unusual points — demand forecasting is different.
Why this answer
Forecasting continuous values from historical data is the machine-learning workload (specifically regression). The six AI-900 workload families: ML prediction, computer vision, NLP, document intelligence, knowledge mining, and generative AI.
