Artificial Intelligence, abbreviated as AI, is the use of computers to simulate human intelligence. It encompasses everything that allows computers to learn how to solve problems and make intelligent decisions. AI systems copy the human thought process that experts follow when they observe, interpret and evaluate information before making a decision. To do this, a supercomputer is required that can process vast quantities of data using Machine Learning (ML) algorithms to search for patterns and insights, from which future predictions can be made. AI algorithms contrast with traditional computer programs, as they are not explicitly programmed by a human programmer, and can continuously learn and improve as they are fed new data.
