Now, let's move on to the next topic in the Artificial Intelligence Learning Series:
*Types of Artificial Intelligence*
Not all AI is created equal.
AI is often categorized into three major types based on its capabilities. Let’s break them down:
*1) Narrow AI (Weak AI)*
This is the type of AI we encounter every day. It is designed to perform a specific task.
*Examples*: Google Search, Netflix recommendations, Siri, ChatGPT.
While it may seem intelligent, Narrow AI cannot think outside its defined scope. You’re likely surrounded by Narrow AI right now.
*2) General AI (Strong AI)*
This represents what we see in science fiction, but we are not there yet. General AI would possess human-level intelligence across all areas, not just one.
It could solve math problems, write code, compose music, and understand emotions independently. We are still researching this; no machine has achieved it yet.
*3) Superintelligent AI*
This is a hypothetical concept — a form of AI that would surpass human intelligence. It could potentially make decisions more efficiently and effectively than humans.
Prominent figures like Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking have cautioned about its risks. However, it remains theoretical, so it is essential to watch this development closely.
