Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to computing technologies inspired by the ways

humans use their neural systems to think and make decisions, although they

typically operate in quite different ways. AI is a machine-based system that, through

a set of explicit or implicit objectives determined by humans, can infer outputs from

inputs, such as predictions, recommendations, or decisions that can affect real or

virtual environments. Various AI systems are designed to operate at different levels

of autonomy and adaptability. The following figure presents a simplified model of

how AI operates.
