Artificial intelligence (AI)

The meaning of "artificial intelligence" is fluid, shifting over time and with context. What counts as AI in one era is often taken for granted as ordinary computation in the next.

At its core, though, the term is about agency — the capacity of a machine to act, to make decisions, and to pursue goals with some degree of autonomy.
