Strong AI

Strong artificial intelligence or, True AI, may refer to: Artificial general intelligence, a hypothetical machine that exhibits behavior at least as skillful and flexible as humans do, and the research program of building such an artificial general intelligence.

Featured in many movies, strong AI acts more like a brain. It does not classify, but uses clustering and association to process data. In short, it means there isn’t a set answer to your keywords. The function will mimic the result, but in this case, we aren’t certain of the result. Like talking to a human, you can assume what someone would reply to a question with, but you don’t know. For example, a machine might hear “good morning” and start to associate that with the coffee maker turning on. If the computer has the ability, it theoretically could hear “good morning” and decide to turn on the coffee maker.

Another example is AI in games. In one example, an AI program taught itself to play 49 classic Atari games. When the program was instructed to obtain the highest score it could in the game Breakout, it was able to outperform humans in just 2.5 hours. Researchers let the program continue and to their surprise, the program developed a strategy that was not programmed into the system. Keep in mind that the computer isn’t seeing the bat, ball, or rainbow strips. It “sees” a bunch of numbers. It knows what variables it controls, and how it is able to increase points based on how it controls the variables in relation to the other numbers. BBC News said that in half of the 49 games, the AI was able to beat a professional gamer.  

Weak AI

Weak artificial intelligence (weak AI), also known as narrow AI, is artificial intelligence that is focused on one narrow task. ... Siri operates within a limited pre-defined range, there is no genuine intelligence, no self-awareness, no life despite being a sophisticated example of weak AI.

Siri and Alexa could be considered AI, but generally, they are weak AI programs. Even advanced chess programs are considered weak AI. This categorization seems to be rooted in the difference between supervised and unsupervised programming. Voice-activated assistance and chess programs often have a programmed response. They are sensing for things similar to what they know, and classifying them accordingly. This presents a human-like experience, but that is all it is—a simulation. If you ask Alexa to turn on the TV, the programming understands key words like On and TV. The algorithm will respond by turning on the TV, but it is only responding to its programming. In other words, it does not comprehend any of the meaning of what you said.
