<p>
A common way for normal people (who are <em>not</em> specialists in <strong>artificial-intelligence</strong>) to imagine <strong>artificial-intelligence</strong> is to imagine an <strong>android</strong>
a robot that looks like and behaves like a human.
</p>
<p>
Although <strong>androids</strong> are definitely a type of <strong>artificial-intelligence</strong>
in reality <strong>artificial-intelligence</strong> is broader than, and even includes things that are much much much simpler than, <strong>androids</strong>.
</p>
<p>
But this (non-specialist) lay-person concept of <strong>artificial-intelligence</strong> as an <strong>android</strong> pervasive.
In fact, it is so pervasive that it (also) get expressed in science-fiction fictional-worlds.
Some examples of this includes:
</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Adam Link</strong> from <strong>I, Robot</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Alpha 5</strong> from <strong>Power Rangers</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Astro Boy</strong> (also known as <strong>Mighty Atom</strong>) from the fictional-world of the same name — <strong>Astro Boy</strong>,</li>
<li>the <strong>B.A.T.s</strong> from <strong>G.I. Joe</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>B.O.B.</strong> from <strong>The Black Hole</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>C-3PO</strong> from <strong>Star Wars</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Cosmos</strong> from <strong>Transformers</strong>,</li>
<li>the <strong>Cylons</strong> from <strong>Battlestar Galactica</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Data</strong> from <strong>Star Trek: The Next Generation</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>B-9</strong> from <strong>Lost in Space</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Gort</strong> from <strong>The Day the Earth Stood Still</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>HAL 9000</strong> from <strong>2001: A Space Odyssey</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Johnny 5</strong> from <strong>Short Circuit</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>K-2SO</strong> from <strong>Star Wars</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Maximillian</strong> from <strong>The Black Hole</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Metalhead</strong> from <strong>Teenager Mutant Ninja Turtles</strong> (<abbr title ="Teenager Mutant Ninja Turtles">TMNT</abbr>),</li>
<li><strong>R2-D2</strong> from <strong>Star Wars</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Ravage</strong> from <strong>Transformers</strong>,</li>
<li>the <strong>Replicators</strong> from <strong>Stargate SG-1</strong>,</li>
<li>the various <strong>robots</strong> from <strong>The Rocket City</strong> (<strong><span lang="fa">شهر موشکی</span></strong>)</li>
<li><strong>Rosey</strong> from <strong>The Jetsons</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Soundwave</strong> from <strong>Transformers</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Swerve</strong> from <strong>Transformers</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Tik-Tok</strong> from <strong>Oz</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>The Doctor</strong> from <strong>Star Trek: Voyager</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>The Dummy</strong> from <strong>A Clever Dummy</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Twiki</strong> from <strong>Buck Rogers in the 25th Century</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>Ultron</strong> from <strong>Marvel Comics</strong>,</li>
<li><strong>V.I.N.CENT</strong> from <strong>The Black Hole</strong>,</li>
<li>and many many many others.</li>
</ul>
