Fuzziness, or ambiguity, refers to situations where information is unclear or open to multiple interpretations. This can occur in language, where words or phrases may have different meanings depending on context. For example, the word bank can refer to a financial institution or the side of a river, leading to confusion without additional context. In decision-making, fuzziness can complicate choices when options are not clearly defined. This uncertainty can arise in various fields, such as philosophy, linguistics, and computer science, where precise definitions are crucial for effective communication and understanding.
