Automatic is not the same as AI
A washing machine runs by itself. Is it AI? Ask one question. Did it learn from examples?
Here is one more machine. A spam filter moves junk email out of your inbox.
Step 1 of 4
- A washing machine runs alone. Nobody watches it.
- It never learned. Same steps every wash.
- A spam filter also runs alone.
- It also learned from old emails. It is AI.
No, a washing machine follows fixed steps and never learned.
Automation follows fixed steps. AI learns from examples.
A traffic light with a set timer is automation. AI can handle a new case, one it has not seen. Running by itself does not make something AI.
Sort each machine. Is it automation or AI?
