AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science focused on creating systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence, including learning, reasoning, problem-solving, language understanding and image recognition.
Modern AI encompasses technologies such as machine learning, deep learning, generative AI and large language models, transforming industries including healthcare, entertainment, finance, education and manufacturing. Recent advances have led to tools capable of generating text, images, music, video and software code, while also accelerating scientific research and automation.
Alongside its rapid development, AI has prompted widespread debate over ethics, regulation, employment, privacy, copyright and the long-term societal impact of increasingly capable intelligent systems.

More About AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the development of computer systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence, such as learning, reasoning, recognising patterns, understanding language and making decisions.
Generative AI is a form of artificial intelligence that creates new content—including text, images, music, video and computer code—based on patterns learned from large datasets.
AI is used across a wide range of fields, including healthcare, scientific research, finance, education, manufacturing, customer service, entertainment, autonomous systems and creative industries, where it assists with analysis, automation and content generation.
