Look for this insight

AI is not only chatbots — spam filters, recommenders, and predictors count. Name the pattern.

Lesson hook

Not every clever feature you use is a chatbot. Spam filters, recommendation engines, and fraud alerts all run on machine learning too — AI shows up in more places than you'd think.

Do this now

For each one below, guess: chatbot, recommender, or rules-and-filters? (1) Netflix's homepage rows (2) Gmail's spam folder (3) the ChatGPT chat box. You're done when you've made your three guesses — the answers are 1 = recommender, 2 = rules-or-filter, 3 = chatbot. Missing one is totally fine; curiosity counts.
