How can you explain artificial intelligence in layman’s terms?
Your question did not ask, what is natural intelligence? Probably because you know what natural intelligence is. Technically speaking, artificial intelligence is a copy of natural intelligence, for better or worse. I have previously defined artificial intelligence elsewhere on Quora as, basically willy nilly, stabbing in the dark, trying to model “natural intelligence”.
