Definition: algorithmic


Using an algorithm. Although the term has traditionally been used as a synonym for a mathematical formula, it is increasingly used to refer to complex software such as AI neural networks and blockchain protocols. In addition, the term algorithm sounds more scientific as well as mysterious, which, in fact, AI and blockchains most assuredly are to most people. See AI, neural network, blockchain and consensus mechanism.
