  ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the branch of computer science that focuses on creating systems capable of performing tasks that normally require human intelligence. These tasks include problem-solving, learning, reasoning, perception, and language understanding. At its core, AI involves designing algorithms and models that allow machines to process information, adapt to new inputs, and make decisions with minimal human intervention. Unlike traditional software, which follows explicit instructions, AI systems can improve their performance over time through techniques such as machine learning, where they identify patterns in data and refine their outputs accordingly. AI can be categorized into two main types: narrow AI and general AI.
