# Artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is software that can do tasks that usually need a person, such as understanding words, spotting a pattern, or drafting a reply. It is not a mind, and it does not know things the way you do. When someone says a product uses AI, they mean the software can help with a task. You still decide whether the result is right.
