AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. It refers to the field of computer science and technology that focuses on creating intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that would typically require human intelligence. AI systems are designed to simulate human cognitive processes such as learning, problem-solving, perception, and decision-making.
Artificial Intelligence can be categorized into two broad types: Narrow AI and General AI.
- Narrow AI, also known as Weak AI, refers to AI systems that are designed to perform specific tasks or functions. These systems are trained and programmed to excel in a specific domain, such as image recognition, natural language processing, or playing chess. Examples of narrow AI include voice assistants like Siri and Alexa, recommendation algorithms used by streaming services, and autonomous vehicles.
