AI APPROACH
The aim of AI is to simulate the human attributes of logical intelligence, reasoning and knowledge
acquisition in machines. We experience this in the form of virtual assistants like Siri, Alexa, and
Chatbots. AI models generally use two approaches:
Rule-based approach Learning-based approach
RULE-BASED APPROACH
A rule-based system uses rules to represent knowledge. These rules are coded in the system
in the form of if-then-else statements which help the computer in taking decisions. The idea
behind a rule-based system is to use the knowledge of human experts in specialized domains
and incorporate it into the computer system.
