[Verse 1]
From narrow minds to general dreams
Three levels of AI it seems
Narrow works on single tasks
Does exactly what we ask
General thinks like humans do
Cross-domain and flexible too
Super intelligence beyond our scope
The future's distant glowing hope
[Chorus]
Rule-based, statistical, connectionist way
Hybrid systems here to stay
From symbols first to neural nets
Data plus compute never forgets
Narrow, general, super three
AI taxonomy's the key
[Verse 2]
Turing asked can machines think
Chinese Room made philosophers blink
Embodied cognition needs a form
Intelligence beyond the norm
Symbolic AI ruled the start
Logic engines, expert's art
Then winter came, the funding froze
Progress stopped, excitement closed
[Chorus]
Rule-based, statistical, connectionist way
Hybrid systems here to stay
From symbols first to neural nets
Data plus compute never forgets
Narrow, general, super three
AI taxonomy's the key
[Verse 3]
Expert systems knew the rules
IBM Watson played like fools
AlphaGo mastered ancient game
Neural networks sparked the flame
Statistical methods found their place
Connectionist networks won the race
Deep learning changed the paradigm
Architecture so sublime
[Bridge]
Cycles rise and cycles fall
Hype and progress through it all
Data grows and compute scales
Foundation models tell new tales
Multimodal systems see and hear
Agentic futures drawing near
Twenty twenty-four to six
All these paradigms now mix
[Chorus]
Rule-based, statistical, connectionist way
Hybrid systems here to stay
From symbols first to neural nets
Data plus compute never forgets
Narrow, general, super three
AI taxonomy's the key
[Outro]
Map the timeline, see the flow
From where we were to where we'll go
Each milestone shows a paradigm
Progress marching through all time
