KembaraXtra-Psychology - artificial language
An artificial language is a language intentionally invented or constructed, often for practical purposes such as communication in computing and information technology. It contrasts with natural language, which evolves through everyday human use.

KembaraXtra-Psychology - artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to designing machines or computer programs—real or hypothetical—to perform tasks normally associated with minds, including activities like playing chess, logical reasoning, creative output (such as poetry or music), or complex analysis (such as chemical analysis). The hardest challenges occur when attempting to model intelligent functions that people typically perform without awareness, especially in domains like vision and language. The term was introduced in 1956 by the US computer engineer John McCarthy (1927–2011). It is also called machine intelligence, and discussions often distinguish strong AI from weak AI, with many related topics including knowledge representation, expert systems, computer vision, neural networks, non-monotonic reasoning, and the Turing test.

KembaraXtra-Psychology - articulatory coding
Articulatory coding is a way of remembering verbal material by representing or storing the motor pattern—the physical movements needed to say it—rather than storing the sound of the words (acoustic coding) or the meaning (semantic coding).
