2. AI enables devices to accept commands in different
modes, such as text or audio, making their use easier.
3. AI-enabled devices can be used in areas which may
be dangerous for humans or require critical decision-
making based on the situation, such as firefighting,
surgery, handling toxic substances, and managing
traffic.
4. AI enables computers and machines to learn new capabilities and use them to enhance their
working.
5. AI-enabled machines take decisions based on facts which are not swayed by emotions or
prejudices.
Disadvantages of Artificial Intelligence
Like every technology, Artificial Intelligence has its disadvantages too. Some of these are:
1. The development and implementation of AI is expensive and time-consuming.
2. The increased use of AI-enabled machines may increase dependency of humans on them and
reduction in use of their natural intelligence.
3. A machine using AI is dependent on its programming. Such
machines usually lack creativity and can only perform tasks
they are programmed for.
4. Machines do not have emotions, morals, or ethics. Thus, AI-
enabled devices can prove dangerous in the wrong hands.
5. AI-enabled machines may develop self-awareness and put
their own existence at a higher significance than that of
humans. In such a scenario, they might consider humans
their enemies and potential threats to their existence.
TYPES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Based on its development approach, capability, and functionality, Artificial Intelligence can be divided
into several types.
Types of AI on Basis of Development Approach
Development of AI usually follows two approaches.
1. Rule-based Approach: A system designed to achieve
artificial intelligence (AI) through predetermined rules
is known as a Rule-based AI system. Its structure
comprises a set of human-coded rules that result
in pre-defined outcomes. Two important elements
of rule-based AI models are a set of rules and a set
of facts and by using these, developers can create a
basic artificial intelligence model.
