A vector image storage format, similar to EPS except proprietary.
It's a vast field of study that's been around since the 1950s, which has been completely demolished in the popular imagination by the social mania recently surrounding a select few of its inventions.
Weird.

A catch-all term for computers doing things traditionally human minds do.
While your statement is true, it made me wonder if it’s theoretically possible to do it with something else than a computer.
Let's define the simplest form of an AI: An if-then-else clause.. Would anything not alive capable of doing this task be considered a computer?
I guess a mechanical contraption could do it, but that would also make it a mechanical computer, right?
I think that in order for something to count as AI, it can't be just a pre-written script but it needs to be able to take in new information and apply it to its outputs. For example, instead of telling a chess bot every single possible game of chess, you just give it the rules of the game and let it figure it out.

The current connotation is a marketing term for a series of computer models that generate text, images, and video, none of which is actually artificially intelligent, but which many people have been swept up in with various promises of a future that's almost certain to never materialize.
Said marketing takes advantage of the fact that people think that term means something else than it actually does but it is not misuse of the term in the strict definition of it.
