Which term describes the capacity of computer systems to imitate intelligent human behavior?

• A. Culture
• B. Mass media
• C. Artificial Intelligence
• D. Legislation

Answer: (C)

Artificial Intelligence describes the capacity of computer systems to imitate intelligent human behavior. It involves machines learning from data, adapting to new situations, reasoning through problems, understanding language, and perceiving the world. When a computer carries out tasks that would normally require human thought—like a voice assistant understanding speech, a system recognizing a photo, or a self-driving car navigating traffic—that’s AI in action. The other terms don’t fit because culture is about shared beliefs and practices within a community, mass media are channels of communication, and legislation refers to laws enacted by governing bodies. These concepts relate to people or society, not to machines simulating human intelligence.
