Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions. The term may also be applied to any machine that exhibits traits associated with a human mind, such as learning and problem-solving.
AI is based on the principle that human intelligence can be defined in a way that a machine can easily mimic it and execute tasks, from simple to more complex.
The ideal characteristic of artificial intelligence is its ability to rationalize and take actions that have the best chance of achieving a specific goal. The goals of artificial intelligence include learning, reasoning, and perception.
