Jazz fusion, also known as "progressive jazz", or just "fusion", is a style of Jazz developed in the late 1960s. Though the term "jazz fusion" has a broader scope nowadays than it did in its inception, it mainly boils down to combining the harmony and improvisation of jazz with Rock, Funk, R&B and pop music. Jazz fusion arrangements vary in complexity, ranging from groove-based vamps over one or two chords with simple melodies, to complex arrangements with uncommon time signatures, melodies paired with an interweaving countermelody, elaborate chord progressions, and so on. As well, they make more use of electric instruments (electric guitar, electric bass, electric piano), synthesizers, digital drums, electronic effects, and large speaker cabinets. The thread that connects traditional jazz to fusion is that fusion continues to use instrumental improvisation over the Chord Progression.
Guitarist Larry Coryell, often cited as the earliest progenitor of fusion, began the earliest form of fusion in 1966 with his band, the Free Spirits, the first jazz-rock band. Coryell would continue to help bring the worlds of psychedelic rock and jazz together, working on albums with vibraphonist Gary Burton, and was soon joined by Charles Lloyd and Jeremy Steig experimenting with fusion, and saxophonist Rahsaan Roland Kirk even performing with rock guitar innovator Jimi Hendrix. Around the same time, Miles Davis, who was already flirting with electronic sounds, began incorporating the sounds of fusion into his work; first with In a Silent Way in 1969, and then the Hendrix-influenced Bitches Brew the next year. For Bitches Brew, Miles abandoned the swing beat in favor of rock drumming and electric bass grooves, and he even plugged in his trumpet into effect pedals to simulate playing an electric guitar.
Though Miles and others was railed by traditional jazz purists for their experiments with rock, it proved fruitful enough for Miles to continue experimenting with fusion until his death, and allowed many of his sidemen, including Herbie Hancock and George Benson, to strike off on their own and achieve solo success with their own fusion albums.
Over time, fusion would greatly influence the genres it took inspiration from, giving way to offshoots like smooth jazz, acid jazz, nu-jazz, quiet storm, and other fusion genres. 1970's funk bands like Earth, Wind & Fire and Kool & the Gang would incorporate fusion-styled sounds in their music, while the Parliament-Funkadellic collective would run wild with it, until it completely morphed into their own "P-Funk" sound. American jazz fusion bands like Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return to Forever, and Weather Report were popular album and touring bands in the '70s, and acted as a sort of Transatlantic Equivalent of the mostly British Progressive Rock movement of the same decade. (Of course, several bands qualified as both, particularly Canterbury Scene bands.)
Miles Davis' experiments, particularly his 1972 album On the Corner, are regularly cited as a major influence on the development of Hip-Hop; which eventually led to the creation of Jazz Rap in the late 1980's, and saw New Jack Swing and Neo Soul producers like Teddy Riley flirt with jazz elements in their work. Miles would would eventually bring it full circle with his posthumous 1992 jazz rap album, Doo-Bop.
It's also known for being really, REALLY popular in Japan. In the 70s, a huge chunk of contemporary music that wasn't straight pop fell into the Jazz Fusion niche, and its most famous artist, four-man group CASIOPEA was one of the most popular artists in the country. It had a huge influence on City Pop, the defining music genre of Japan in the 80s, and its effects can still be felt in the country's music today. Now, because Japanese music has always had a limited presence in the Western music world, most Americans have never heard Japanese jazz fusion (even fans of the American incarnation of the genre). However, most Americans have in fact heard Japanese jazz fusion, via one of the country's most popular exports: Video Games. Most of the really famous Japanese game music composers are admitted jazz fusion fans (notably Koji Kondo and Nobuo Uematsu). Because of this, the genre is still at the core of some of the most famous video game franchises out there, like Super Mario Bros. Hence, chances are anyone who has played a Nintendo game in the last 40 years has in fact heard Japanese jazz fusion.
See also Jazz Rap, Progressive Rock, G-Funk, and Sophisti-Pop for other examples of fusion genres.

Shining: Started out as an acoustic jazz band (and spinoff of Jaga Jazzist) for their first two albums (Where the Ragged People Go, 2001, and Sweet Shanghai Devil, 2003, the second of which was significantly more avant-garde) before moving into jazz fusion/progressive rock for their next two (In the Kingdom of Kitsch You Will Be a Monster, 2005, and Grindstone, 2007). Starting with Blackjazz (2010), they incorporated black metal and industrial influence without eschewing the jazz elementsnote evidently inspired by a collaboration with compatriots Enslaved and leader/saxophonist/vocalist/guitarist/etc. Jørgen Munkeby's work with In Lingua Mortua, though evidently they'd been performing live in this style for quite some time already (somewhat out of necessity, since the earlier songs' arrangements were impractical to reproduce). Not to be confused with the Swedish band of the same name; while the two acts started out playing wildly disparate genres of music, both of them now incorporate elements of black metal and progressive metal into their sound, so this happens frequently.

Defeated Sanity: An unusually heavy example of a Technical Death Metal band with jazz elements - in fact original guitarist Wolfgang Teske (who unfortunately passed away in 2010) was a jazz and progressive rock guitarist who'd been active since the seventies and originally started playing metal just to challenge himself before he started to treat it as a serious endeavour. His son, Lille Gruber (the only original member left in the band and one of the band's two principal songwriters), also has a jazz background. However, Defeated Sanity's jazz elements are usually used to make the music even more unsettling.

John McLaughlin: English guitarist, studied jazz and flamenco in his teens, started out playing 60s R&B and rock with the Graham Bond Organisation, soon moved into avant-garde circles in Britain, then went to America and played with Miles Davis before launching a solo career which involved him getting seriously into Indian spirituality and co-founding the highly successful jazz-rock band Mahavishnu Orchestra. Branched into a fusion of jazz and Indian classical music with Shakti; since the 80s, has mostly returned to electrified jazz. Famous for having short hair in the early 70s "because it is my guru's will", but also for his blistering speed and accuracy (Frank Zappa likened him to a "machine gun"), and his restless musical imagination.

Magma: Strange French band who are Trope Makers and Trope Namers of a Progressive Rock subgenre called Zeuhl that draws a lot of influence from jazz, if obliquely; they have repeatedly cited John Coltrane as their biggest influence, if that's indication. The jazz influence is most obvious on the first two albums; it's a bit more oblique on the band's later music, but still there if you know what to listen for.

Sting: The former frontman of The Police, Sting's early solo material continued the jazz fusion approach that the band's last album, Synchronicity, leaned into. Sting would abandon the style on his third album, though traces of it still occasionally pop up.

Atheist: Arguable Trope Codifier for jazz/metal fusions, and one of the most important Technical Death Metal bands of the late '80s/early '90s. They take especially strong influence from Latin jazz, and parts of their third album, Elements, are outright jazz without any metal elements.

Soft Machine: Another important band in the Canterbury Scene, and probably one of the edgiest and most experimental jazz fusion bands ever.

Chicago: Started out as examples of this and Progressive Rock; moved more towards pop later on.

Morphine: A '90s alternative band that played "low rock", a style completely unique to them that blended rock, blues and jazz together with singer Mark Sandman's deep, crooning bass-baritone voice on top. The trio stood out for completely eschewing the guitar, the instrument that most other rock groups are built around, and instead having a bassist-drummer-saxophonist lineup that is typically only otherwise seen in jazz.
