Expert systems are artificial intelligence applications designed to emulate human expert decision-making in specific domains (Á. Rocha & S. Anwar, 2019; T. Todorov & J. Stoinov, 2019). These systems solve complex problems by reasoning through knowledge bases, often represented as if-then rules (Á. Rocha & S. Anwar, 2019). They are applied in various fields, including milk quality monitoring and animal health (T. Todorov & J. Stoinov, 2019), as well as information management, organizational models, and software systems (Á. Rocha & Lima, 2018). As technology advances, expert systems are evolving to demonstrate superb decision-making skills and conform to social norms for expertise, behaving more like human experts (Papageorgiou, 2021). This development has implications for various fields, including bioinformatics, and raises questions about the concept of "expert generalist" (Papageorgiou, 2021). The continued research and development of expert systems contribute to their growing capabilities and applications across diverse domains.
