Learning Rate

Domain: AI Fundamentals

🎯 Motivation

Controls how big each weight update step is. Too big diverges, too small is slow.

📋 Concrete Example

Learning rate 0.001 means each step changes weights by a tiny amount. 0.5 might overshoot and explode.

🔗 Analogy

Like adjusting a shower tap: tiny turns find the right temperature; big turns scald or freeze you.
