AI (Artificial Intelligence)
[object Object]
Computer systems designed to perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence—pattern recognition, language understanding, decision-making, and learning from experience.
Biological Context
AI functions like a powerful new environmental pressure in business ecosystems—its introduction triggers trophic cascades, reshaping competitive dynamics, resource flows, and niche availability throughout the food web. Like evolution by natural selection, AI systems improve through variation and selection without conscious 'choice'—but on timescales measured in months rather than millennia.
