Rule-Based AI vs. Machine Learning: Finding the Fastest Hiking Route
Rule-Based AI
- A single expert hiker analyzes a map, considering terrain and conditions to select the optimal route.
- This method is efficient and requires minimal energy (a small number of lunchboxes).
Machine Learning
- A large number of hikers explore all possible paths without prior knowledge.
- The fastest hiker’s route is chosen as the optimal path.
- This approach requires many attempts, consuming significantly more energy (a vast number of lunchboxes).
👉 Comparison Summary
- Rule-Based AI: Finds the best route through analysis → Efficient, low energy consumption
- Machine Learning: Finds the best route through trial and error → Inefficient but discovers optimal paths, high energy consumption
