#artificial intelligence
- Algorithm — A finite, ordered, unambiguous, and rigorous set of rules, instructions, or logical steps that, executed in a specific sequence starting from initial data, systematically lead to solving a problem or achieving a precise result. In computer science, it forms the logical foundation of software.
- Algorithm engineer — A highly specialized software engineer or mathematician focused on the design, structural analysis, optimization, and implementation of complex computing algorithms. In the tech industry, the term tracks experts developing mathematical models for artificial intelligence, cryptography, or big data processing.
- Android — An automated robot with a human appearance, structurally built to mimic the look, movements, and functions of a man or human being. In the context of modern computer science, the term (capitalized, Android) designates the most popular open-source operating system for mobile devices, based on the Linux kernel and developed by Google.
- Artificial light in the office can strain the eyes after a few hours of work. — Made, produced, or manufactured by humans through craftsmanship, technique, or industrial processes, not being generated spontaneously by nature; which imitates a natural product or phenomenon. In a broad sense, the term designates something that lacks spontaneity, is feigned, forced, or conventional. In computer science, it is used in fundamental phrases such as artificial intelligence, designating technological systems capable of simulating human cognitive functions. In biology and medicine, it refers to substitution elements or environments created in the laboratory, such as artificial limbs or artificial insemination.
- To self-model — To modify, adapt, or develop one's internal structure, behavior, or personality traits through one's own conscious, reflexive, and voluntary effort, in response to life experiences or interaction with the environment. In cybernetics and artificial intelligence, the verb describes the property of an advanced algorithm (such as machine learning) to rewrite or adjust its internal logical network to optimize task resolution without external programming.
- To self-program — To independently establish one's own schedule or course of action; to autonomously introduce new instructions, rules, or settings into one's own runtime or behavioral structure. In computer science and artificial intelligence, it describes the ability of an advanced algorithm or cybernetic system to rewrite or extend its source code independently, based on accumulated data, without human programmer intervention. In psychology, it reflects the conscious mental process whereby an individual implements specific goals or beliefs (self-suggestion) to shape future reactions.
- Self-programming — The act of self-programming and its result; a structural process through which a cybernetic system, software algorithm, or neural network autonomously generates, extends, or modifies its source code and internal instructions based on input data and past experiences, without human intervention. In psychology, it defines a mental mechanism of conscious self-suggestion whereby an individual implements rigid goals, behavioral patterns, or specific beliefs to shape future emotional reactions.
- Self-programmed — Having been configured, organized, or rewritten by itself; a system, algorithm, or individual in a state of structural and functional independence achieved through a self-programming process. In modern software engineering, the term describes adaptive code or neural networks that have reconfigured their internal logical structure on their own to optimize execution times or correct detected errors.
- Self-protected — Having protected oneself or having been secured against risks, errors, aggressions, or harmful factors through its own internal, autonomous means or mechanisms; a software system, electronic circuit, or individual in a state of structural safety achieved without direct external intervention. In computer science, it describes adaptive code or cyber infrastructure secured through automated self-isolation protocols, whereas in psychology it reflects the state of a subject who has established clear emotional boundaries to preserve psychic balance.
