Types of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is classified into different types based on its capabilities and functionalities. Understanding
these classifications is vital for recognising AI's impact across varied sectors such as healthcare, finance, transportation,
and entertainment. Each type signifies a unique method of utilising data and algorithms, whether to improve decision-
making or replicate human-like reasoning in intricate situations.
There are three types of AI:

Artificial Narrow Intelligence
Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) has a limited or narrow range of abilities. It is
most dedicated to performing only one task. It is also called Weak AI or Narrow
AI as it operates under limited capabilities. It excels at performing a single task or
a narrow set of tasks, often with high efficiency and accuracy, but lacks general
reasoning and problem-solving capabilities outside its designated area.
Consider Siri, the virtual assistant on an iPhone, it uses speech and language
recognition techniques to set an alarm, or send an SMS to a contact on your phone.
Examples of Weak AI or Narrow AI are as follows:
• Image/facial recognition software
• Apple Siri, Amazon Alexa, Microsoft Cortana and other virtual assistants that
operate on limited functions
