Learning AI lingo: what does "corpus" mean?

Artificial Intelligence is the biggest technological disruption since the onset of the Internet. We may as well understand a little bit of the lingo a little better. 

This article describes what "corpus" means in relation to AI. 

Hint: it's arguably the most important thing.

...When used in the artificial intelligence realm, the term “corpus” doesn’t refer to a physical body at all. Instead, it refers to the metaphorical “body,” or collection, of data that was used to train the AI. This corpus is the material the AI reviews to become intelligent in whatever it was designed for. Every AI’s corpus will be different, because it is humans who decide what kind of data they want to train an AI on. And the corpus the humans decide to train the AI on will depend on what they want the AI to be proficient in.
