Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that involves the creation of intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. AI systems often encompass abilities such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding.
In terms of learning, AI utilizes algorithms to analyze vast amounts of data and recognize patterns, a process known as machine learning. A subset of machine learning is deep learning, which uses structures similar to neural networks in the human brain to learn complex patterns.
Reasoning capabilities allow AI systems to handle logical problems, such as mathematical puzzles or strategy games. Problem-solving usually involves analyzing a series of potential solutions and selecting the best one.
