Recap

Artificial Intelligence is all about creating machines that can think and learn like humans.
The journey to understand if machines could truly think began much before John McCarthy’s first

academic conference.

In 1950s, AI was limited to problem solving and later in 1960s US Defence did most of the work.
The first intelligent personal assistant was introduced by One Voice as IVAN in the year 1999.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved from early theoretical concepts to a central force in modern
technology.
