AI or Artificial Intelligence (Q11660 on
Wikidata) is an area of computer science,
whose effort lies in making computers simulate thinking like humans and
possibly other biologically living beings. This may include making
computers play games such as chess, compose music, paint pictures, understand and processing audio,
images and text on high level of abstraction and understanding
(e.g. translation between natural languages), making predictions about
complex systems such as stock market or weather or even exhibit a
general human-like behavior such as simulated emotion.
AI as a term has been around for a long time - a lot of people hear the word «Artificial Intelligence» and think of big companies like OpenAI's ChatGPT or xAI's Grok, but AI has been around for some time now. AI has been around for sometime now, including in computer games, like in 1993's groundbreaking Doom that used Artificial Intelligence for its NPC characters1.
The 2020s saw the rise in AI chatbots2, a bot that learns all of the time by scraping the Internet for texts, reading, learning from talking to human users and getting a better understanding all of the time.
Artificial intelligence is the use of computer code to produce some form of intelligence, no matter how actually intelligent. This can range from basic state machines with RNG or weighted comparisons to neural networks and generative AI.
Also known as large language models (LLMs).↩︎
