The most basic but still quite useful artificial intelligence is called reactive AI because it reacts to existing conditions as its name suggests. Deep Blue, the supercomputer created by IBM in the 1980s that ultimately competed and won a chess match against reigning world champion Garry Kasparov, is a notable example of reactive AI.

Reactive machines aren’t able to learn or conceive of the past or future. Spam filters and the Netflix recommendation engine are other examples of reactive AI.

Certainly, reactive AI was an incredible accomplishment. Since very little human action is solely reactionary, in order for AI to be on par with human intelligence it needed to advance.
