It's a button--down towards the bottom right. If you leave it on, when combat occurs your team will automatically determine how and whom to fight. When turned off, you decide who does what in battle.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

I know your question has already been basically answered, but to answer the side question "What does AI stand for?" It stands for "Artificial Intelligence". Just like Fable said, that's where the computer will make the decisions for you based upon any given situation. With the AI on, depending upon the Script assigned to each NPC, the computer may decide to attack a character outside your party that should not be attacked thus ruining a quest. That's why they advise that you turn the AI off, so it allows you to make the decision yourself.

ps: no intention of stepping on Fables toes, just expounding a bit further. :)
Mitch:You know, um, something strange happened to me this morning... Chris Knight: Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?Mitch: No... Chris Knight:Why am I the only one who has that dream?
