Summary: "As artificial intelligence (AI) systems increasingly become more widespread in society, many people regularly interact with them as normal part of their everyday lives. The increasing prevalence of and seeming familiarity with everyday applications that employ AI may, however, easily betray its complexity. Diagnosis of the role of AI in society in public and scholarly discourse regularly depict AI as a uniform, monolithic phenomenon - almost like a force of nature that drives societal change. This is palpable, for instance, in statements that posit that AI will transform all aspects of social and economic life. However, while it is true that a certain set of technological advances largely rooted in computer science are responsible for an entire array of innovations in various domains, speaking of Ai as a single technical entity conceals how elusive and multifaceted the term is. Not only is there no commonly accepted definition of AI, but what the term refers to will, at the very least, depend on whether one is talking about AI as (a) a scientific field, (b) a technology or method or (c) concrete applications of AI systems." —Preface
