Artificial intelligence (AI, also machine intelligence, MI) refers to machines that mimic human intelligence, i.e., they are adaptive, effective, and safe in a variety of new situations.

AI is an interdisciplinary field: it draws from cognitive science, mathematics and computer science, philosophy (in logic), engineering (in control theory), economics, psychology, and neuroscience.
