Types of AI

AI Decoded: 8 Essential Types You Need to Know in 2025

Weak AI is generally known as Narrow AI.

If you approach programming like a master chef making pizza, you’re highly skilled in one area but unable to accomplish other tasks.

General AI (Strong AI).

Imagine having an assistant who can learn your profession, create poetry, repair your vehicle and teach your kids, but this isn’t actually possible yet.

Super AI

If we imagine Einstein, Shakespeare and a supercomputer combining their brains - their baby could solve climate change in the morning, outperforming all human minds.

Machine Learning

Give a student plenty of materials to learn from and it will notice even small hints of certain ideas - but it may not fully understand those ideas.

Deep Learning

It acts just like a brain full of tiny people, who all work together to spot your nose in a picture.

Neural Networks

Like in your mind, machines link electronic neurons together, passing messages back and forth trying to find patterns.

Expert Systems

A know-it-all and yet it follows a thorough set of guidelines, so if something happens to your car, it’ll tell you what to do, but if you want to cook, it can’t help you.

Reinforcement Learning

AI that plays chess learns much the same way as any video game player; it makes a move, gets a response, learns from its results and keeps improving until it beats a real human.
