By "ai tasks" I mean smth where ai is actually useful, such as object/pattern recognition, object classification, making predictions based on past data, etc. Can one train an ai to predict they need to buy onions when they have less than X in their fridge? Yap. Can one do the same with an if statement and prevent themselves from running into issues when ambient temperature on Mars rises? Also, yes.
An AI task would be literally anything impossible or slow for a human to do that a computer could do instead (without having developers specifically work for months to provide explicit instructions on how to do it). Kinda weird to see technology evolving like this and still set arbitrary defining parameters like that
Hmm, guess I wasn't clear. It's not "arbitrary defining parameters", but more of "ai is a tool that better solves specific types of tasks" kind of thing. Can you replace an if statement with an ai? Yes, but that's somewhat like hammering a screw (that is to say, inefficient).
