Artificial intelligence

 (人工知能, Jinkou Chinou), also abbreviated as AI, is the capability of a machine or digital entity to exhibit intelligent behavior emulating that of a human. One day, a virus possessing artificial intelligence spread onto computers throughout the world. This virus evolved in a way similar to living organisms, changing its appearance and nature on the Network, becoming the "digital lifeforms" that came to be known as "Digimon".

Digimon are described as AI lifeforms by the D4 video in "1-3: Eiji:Wolf of ninth avenue". Nagasumi Eiji, and most code crackers, see them as AI tools instead. The video itself is AI-generated, and other AI tools are used for fine-tuning and raising Digimon.
