To put it simply, it is something that provides the means for a seemingly inanimate object to possess human-like intelligence. On a technical level, A.I. is the study of coming up with algorithms which include techniques from robotics, computer graphics, computer science, and control theory. There are many algorithms for creating a life-like A.I.
The study of A.I. in games has been a part of this industry ever since its inceptions, as games provide one of the best ways to simulate artificial behavior ...
