Classifications of Artificial intelligence ( AI )

When People think of AI ( artificial intelligence ) they think of the Terminator, Star wars, and space odyssey.  While some people see AI as “polite and helpful butler servants” others, especially in Hollywood view AI as “ world destroying super robots” AI is a broad topic, It can be as simple as the programming that runs your TV or that shows you recommended people to follow or even a video game.

Calalber 1: Caliber 1 AI is called Artificial Narrow Intelligence ( NIA ). This type of AI is the most commonly seen. Well most of the time it isn't seen. What i'm talking about is the AI that makes everything in your house run. From your freezer noticing you don't have ice to your thermostat automatically telling your heater to turn up the heat because the house is getting cold. These types of AI are designed to do one task and complete it flawlessly every time. A great example of this is a computer programmed to play chess. Chess is a game that has strict rules and there can be no creativity in this game. Therefore a computer can access the situation and will 99% of the time.  “It can’t simulate flight paths or predict a better way to store data as it was programmed only to play chess, which it does extremely well”


Caliber 2 Caliber 2 AI is called Artificial General Intelligence ( NGA) NGA is very rare in today's society but ever prominent. NGA is an AI that is capable of doing everything a human can with the same difficulty. No easier and no harder. They can not think for themselves but they are programmed with a mimicking tool. What is they you ask? Well it takes information that it receives and mimics it. Therefore it has primitive leaning. The only public instance of this is IBM's Watson computer that destroyed every jeopardy contestant it faced.


Caliber 3: Caliber 3 AI knows as Artificial Super Intelligence (  ASI ) is the scariest form of AI imaginable. This AI is 10,000 smarter than the smartest human. It is“an intellect that is much smarter than the best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom and social skills.” Currently none of these machines exist due to the sheer cost of quantum computers. The AI needs a brain to operate and a Quantum computer is the best solution to the problem. But the only problem with ASI is it is great at learning. So good at learning it is predicted that within 1 hour of being activated it will gain consciousness and become a litters god. Being able to process Immense amounts of data giving it Infinite knowledge. If such a AI could be controlled then the human race would be propelled forward 100 fold. But just like terminator if the AI deems us as useless then it will have in limiter to completely insulate us as a human race.
