- Ai is a ghost town in Fulton County, Ohio, United States, established around 1843. The origin of its name has been a local controversy: some say that it was named after the biblical city of Ai, while others believe that it was named after one of its founders, Ami Richards.

Miscellanea
- AI a.k.a. Appreciative inquiry is a model for analysis, decision-making and the creation of strategic change, particularly within companies and other organizations. It was developed at Case Western Reserve University's department of organizational behavior, starting with a 1987 article by David Cooperrider and Suresh Srivastva. They felt that the overuse of "problem solving" as a model often held back analysis and understanding, focusing on problems and limiting discussion of new organizational models.

- AI is a digraph used in many languages. Typically it represents the diphthong /ai/ or some variant thereof. In English, as a result of the Great Vowel Shift, ai has shifted from this value to represent the sound /eɪ/ as in pain and rain; while in French, a different change, monophthongization, has occurred, resulting in the digraph being pronounced /ɛ/. A similar change has also occurred during the development of Greek, resulting in the digraph αι and the letter ε both also having the same sound; originally /ɛ/, later /e/. In German, it represents [aɪ] as in Kaiser. However, most German words use the digraph "ei" to represent [aɪ] instead.
