Narrow AI (also called Weak AI) is AI designed for specific tasks. It excels at one thing—like language, images, or navigation—but can't do everything a human can do. This is the only type of AI that exists today.
All AI tools you'll encounter—ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, Google Maps—are narrow AI. Understanding this helps set realistic expectations about what AI can and cannot do.
ChatGPT handles language tasks brilliantly but can't drive a car. Google Maps predicts traffic patterns but can't write poetry. Each narrow AI is really good at its specific job.
