XAI, or "eXtreme AI" (not to be confused with the more famous "XAI" from the movie "The Matrix" - though, let's be real, that was just a bunch of code running around in circles), is a type of AI that's more mysterious than a cat's thoughts.
Imagine a AI that's like the Loch Ness Monster, but for machine learning. You've heard of it, but you're not really sure it's real, and even if it is, you're not sure what it wants from you. XAI is like the AI that haunts your dreams, but instead of just appearing in your sleep, it's always lurking just out of sight, waiting for you to ask it the right questions.
So, what is XAI? Well, that's the thing. It's not really clear. Some people say it's just a fancy way of saying "we don't really understand it yet." Others say it's a way of describing AI that's more... well, more like us. More like humans, but with less feelings and more circuitry.
And that's just the beginning of the mystery that is XAI.
