Rule-based AI, also known as knowledge-based systems, operates strictly on a predefined set of rules. These systems make decisions without the ability to adapt, change, or learn from new or unexpected situations. However, they excel at handling repetitive and well-defined tasks with precision and reliability. Rule-based AI is embedded in numerous everyday technologies, such as alarm clocks, thermostats, and business software, automating mundane tasks and generating reports.
