Narrow AI

Last updated 31/07/2025

Narrow AI, also known as Weak AI, refers to artificial intelligence designed to perform specific tasks or solve particular problems. Unlike general AI, it operates within a limited scope, such as virtual assistants, recommendation systems, or facial recognition. It’s highly effective in its domain but lacks the ability to think or function beyond its programmed purpose. Right now, all AI applications are considered narrow AI.
