Controlling Machines and Physical Devices (Robotics)

AI is used to control physical systems like robots and smart devices. In robotics, AI

enables machines to:

• Assemble products
• Navigate environments

• Assist in surgeries

A prime example is self-driving cars, where AI processes sensor and camera inputs

to drive safely.

Types of Artificial Intelligence

1. Narrow AI (Weak AI)
• The most common and currently existing form of AI.

• Designed for specific tasks only.

• Cannot perform tasks beyond its programmed
purpose.

Examples: Siri, Alexa, recommendation systems, facial recognition, spam filters.

2. General AI (Strong AI)

• Advanced form of AI (still theoretical).

• Can think, understand, learn, and apply knowledge

across a wide range of tasks—like a human.
• Could adapt to unfamiliar situations and make

decisions like humans.

3. Super AI

• A hypothetical form of AI that goes far beyond human
intelligence.

• Would outperform humans in decision-making,
problem-solving, creativity, emotional intelligence,

and self-awareness.
• Raises concerns about control, ethics, and safety.

• Still a future concept, not developed yet.
