    You wrote: ¨XYZ buys a 2 dollars worth chocolate by paying 2 dollars. The correct form of this sentence is: XYZ bought 2 dollars worth chocolate by paying 2 dollars. You wrote: XYZ buys a chocolate for the money he paid.¨ This is not a form of proper English. The sentence should read: XYZ bought a chocolate and paid for it.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence exhibited by machines or software.

    The field was founded on the claim that a central property of humans, intelligence—the sapience of Homo sapiens—"can be so precisely described that a machine can be made to simulate it." This raises philosophical issues about the nature of the mind and the ethics of creating artificial beings endowed with human-like intelligence, issues which have been addressed by myth, fiction and philosophy since antiquity. Artificial intelligence has been the subject of tremendous optimism but has also suffered stunning setbacks. Today it has become an essential part of the technology industry, providing the heavy lifting for many of the most challenging problems in computer science.

    I think that AI is necessary in today´s world. But, like all advancements, it has the potencial for good and bad and has to be controlled.

    To be conversational in any language is being able to carry on a basic conversation, like the way people talk to friends and family. Like: ¨Hello, how are you? I am fine, thank you.¨ etc.

    To be fluent is to be able to talk about any subject intelligently. Example: ¨The economy is in a slump. Please give me your opinion on how we can make it improve.¨
