What is A.I. ?

Well what is A.i. ? It's code.
Here I try to explain it all to you, using facts and history behind it all, citing to documents and people. It's not hype, it's just code and how computers work, all built and written by humans.

This work-in-progress document will be added to and written over time. It may have spelling errors.
