5. Artificial intelligence generally falls under two broad categories
5.1. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI): Is the kind of AI we see in the movies, like the robots from Westworld or Data from Star Trek. AGI is a machine with general intelligence and, much like a human being, it can apply that intelligence to solve any problem.
5.1.1. Narrow AI: Operates within a limited context and is a simulation of human intelligence. Is often focused on performing a single task well and while these machines may seem intelligent, they are operating under far more constraints and limitations than even the most basic human intelligence.
