According to the father of Artificial Intelligence, John McCarthy, it is “The science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs”.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans.
Some of the activities of computers with artificial intelligence are designed including speech recognition, image classification, natural language processing etc.
Here is the history of AI during 20th century −
Year | Milestone / Innovation |
---|---|
1923 | Karel Čapek play named “Rossum's Universal Robots” (RUR) opens in London, first use of the word "robot" in English. |
1943 | Foundations for neural networks laid. |
1945 | Isaac Asimov, a Columbia University alumnus, coined the term Robotics. |
1950 | Alan Turing introduced Turing Test for evaluation of intelligence and published Computing Machinery and Intelligence. Claude Shannon published Detailed Analysis of Chess Playing as a search. |
1956 | John McCarthy coined the term Artificial Intelligence. Demonstration of the first running AI program at Carnegie Mellon University. |
1958 | John McCarthy invents LISP programming language for AI. |
1964 | Danny Bobrow's dissertation at MIT showed that computers can understand natural language well enough to solve algebra word problems correctly. |
1965 | Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT built ELIZA, an interactive problem that carries on a dialogue in English. |
1969 | Scientists at Stanford Research Institute Developed Shakey, a robot, equipped with locomotion, perception, and problem solving. |
