narrow AI
Narrow AI, also known as weak AI, refers to artificial intelligence systems designed to perform specific tasks or solve particular problems. Unlike general AI, which aims to replicate human-like intelligence across various domains, narrow AI excels in limited areas, such as language translation, image recognition, or playing games like Chess and Go.
These systems operate based on algorithms and data, allowing them to learn and improve within their designated functions. Examples of narrow AI include virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa, which can perform tasks such as setting reminders or answering questions, but lack the ability to understand or reason beyond their programmed capabilities.
