Are you a digital native? The answer is a definite "Yes" as we call out Siri and Alexa to respond to our instructions. Artificial Intelligence is the ability for computers to do things that are considered attributes of intelligence: processing language, understanding pictures, detecting patterns, etc. Interestingly, many movies and TV shows have featured predictions as to what A.I. might look like in the future. One such place is the Blockbuster franchise, Star Wars. In addition, in the Marvel Universe, most of the depictions of A.I. originate as digital assistant to either hero or villain.
