The intro to your essay should be structured like an inverted triangle, ie, the most general sentence should be the first sentence, and the most specific sentence should be the thesis statement -- at the very end of the intro.

Do not begin with a definition of AI -- that's a cop-out.

Here's an example of a well-structured introduction:

The reality of artificial intelligence (AI) now has our attention. From computer experts to elementary school teachers to government officials, most of us realize that AI is here to stay even though so much is still unknown about the impact of AI on our daily lives.  One area of concern is the use of ChatGPT, a form of AI that enables the user to ask for help with language-related situations.  Its use spread quickly not quite a year ago as it delighted students, horrified teachers, and confused the rest of us.  Although policies and practices will evolve, ChatGPT should be seen as a useful tool in the writing process because it can help students generate ideas, find sources, and edit their work.
