Artificial intelligence refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. This technology enables machines to learn from experience, adjust to new inputs, and perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and language translation. AI has the potential to revolutionize various industries by automating repetitive tasks, improving efficiency, and enabling new capabilities that were previously unimaginable. As AI continues to advance, it raises important ethical and societal questions regarding its impact on jobs, privacy, and the future of humanity.
