Annotation: This paper examines the history of the emergence and development of AI in Russia and abroad, analyzing and systematizing the approaches of domestic and international scholars to understanding the phenomenon of artificial intelligence, noting their significant diversity and the lack of a clear and generally accepted understanding of its essence and content. It emphasizes the importance of overcoming the terminological ambiguity of this concept for successfully addressing the technological, legal, and ethical aspects of its application and overcoming potential negative consequences. Based on a review of scientific and methodological literature, the paper presents an understanding of AI as a digital technology implemented using a computer device with appropriate software, capable of performing intelligent processes and independently making decisions when interacting with the environment, adapting to changes in it, and continuously improving. AI consists of its operating methods, which vary in their functional capabilities (narrow, general, and superintelligent) and the tasks they solve (machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and robotics). Knowledge of the qualitative uniqueness of the essence and content of AI provides the theoretical basis for further scientific research aimed at its development, improvement, and implementation. It allows us to determine its role and place in various spheres of modern society, formulate legal and ethical standards for its application, anticipate possible negative consequences, and utilize it as a tool for improving the effectiveness of professional activity in various spheres of modern society.
