Narrow AI refers to
| “ | applications that provide domain-specific expertise or task completion, including today's robotics and applications such as tax-preparation software and on-line 'chatbots,' which answer questions specific to a product or service.[1] | ” |
| “ | algorithms that address specific problem sets like game playing, image recognition, and self-driving vehicles. All current AI systems fall into the Narrow AI category.[2] | ” |
Overview[]
Narrow AI "is not a single technical approach, but rather a set of discrete problems whose solutions rely on a toolkit of AI methods along with some problem-specific algorithms. The diversity of Narrow AI problems and solutions, and the apparent need to develop specific methods for each Narrow AI application, has made it infeasible to 'generalize' a single Narrow AI solution to produce intelligent behavior of general applicability."[3]
