artificial intelligence
Image generated by the Stable Diffusion model from the prompt “the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings,” which is the definition of artificial intelligence (AI) in the Encyclopædia Britannica article on the subject. Stable Diffusion is trained on a large set of images paired with textual descriptions and uses natural language processing (NLP) to generate an image.

The term is frequently applied to the project of developing systems endowed with the intellectual processes characteristic of humans, such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from past experience. Since their development in the 1940s, digital computers have been programmed to carry out very complex tasks—such as discovering proofs for mathematical theorems or playing chess—with great proficiency. Despite continuing advances in computer processing speed and memory capacity, there are as yet no programs that can match ...(100 of 5093 words)
