Google MAPS navigation system is for finding the fastest route from home to your school. Is it an example of AI?why or why not?Give a reason for your answer.

Answer:
No, it is not just used for finding a fastest way from home to school. It is a navigation system which could be used for finding the fastest and the slowest route to point B from point A.
Maps is an excellent example for Machine Learning. It gets the traffic data, the distance, speed limit, etc. and also your live location, and then chooses which route is going to take you to point B in the least amount of time. This path may or may not be the shortest path. There is no use in taking the shortest path if the road is filled with traffic jams.
Thus it is not a full-fledged AI, since it is using preset conditions to find the best route. This is called Machine Learning, where a software produces result based on an algorithm. Google Maps uses the Dijkstra algorithm
