Which phrase from the passage helps clarify the meaning of artificial intelligence?

excerpt from Creating Video Games
by J. Blue Spicer

Once you've mastered the basics, it's time to choose a discipline. Video games are more than just experiences in front of a screen. They require working on servers for host players, using game physics so that characters move realistically, and programming with artificial intelligence so that characters act and react naturally. Now that people play video games on tablets, smartphones, and virtual reality headsets, it's critical to make sure that games perform perfectly. Becoming the next great video game designer begins by learning how to program, and by picking the right discipline for what interests you most.
