Topic outline of artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that deals with intelligent behavior, learning, and adaptation "in machines". Research in AI is concerned with producing machines to automate tasks requiring intelligent behavior.

The following outline is provided as an overview of and introduction to artificial intelligence.
