A bank deploys software that can only play out a fixed role: it reads cheque images and flags signature mismatches, and it cannot perform any other task or transfer its learning to unrelated problems. Under the capability-based classification of AI, this system is best described as:

The system is Artificial Narrow Intelligence. It performs one specific task, flagging signature mismatches on cheques, and cannot transfer its learning to unrelated problems. General AI would handle many tasks like a human, and super AI would surpass humans, so neither describes this tool.

  1. AArtificial Narrow IntelligenceCorrect
  2. BArtificial General Intelligence
  3. CArtificial Super Intelligence
  4. DSelf-aware AI

Explanation

Capability-based classification has three levels: narrow, general and super. A system built for one defined task with no ability to generalise across domains is narrow AI. General AI would match human-level versatility, and super AI would exceed human intelligence, neither of which exists in a cheque-reading tool.
