Artificial Intelligence is the ability of a machine to think and learn. Since many
years, scientists have been trying to make machines artificially intelligent, that
is close to human intelligence. Let's learn how Artificial Intelligence has evolved
during these years and take a look at some of the revolutionary inventions.
1950s
In this decade, two major contributions
were observed. In 1950, Alan Turing
submitted a paper about the possibility
of creating machine that would think.
This became a test for machines to
check their thinking capability.
One of the greatest achievements Alan Turing Bombe
of Alan Turing is the creation of Bombe, a machine that could decode encoded
messages.
In 1956, John McCarthy, coined the term Artificial
Intelligence in a conference. He created the programming
language LISP in 1958 which was extensively used to
program AI systems. He is known as 'Father of AI'.
