Artificial Intelligence is a cornerstone of technological advancement in our world today, and understanding its various stages is crucial in our rapidly evolving world, not all of us are tech geniuses, but understanding AI in order to safeguard ourselves is very important.

Early Stage AI

  • The simplest form of AI out there are rule-based AI systems.
  • This type of AI operate on a fixed set of rules or algorithms, like a program basically.

Imagine playing chess against a computer; the computer operates solely based on its coded rules. It can make decisions based on these rules but lacks the capability to learn or adapt beyond them.

Jobs like cashiers, fast food workers will be the first to be replaced due to this being the simplest form of AI.

Recognizing the automation of routine tasks, I focused on developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I engaged in roles that demanded human judgment, which AI at this stage couldn’t replicate, like choosing to major in computer science.
