He is known as the Father of Theoretical Computer Science and also as the Father of Artificial
                 Intelligence due to his creation of the Turing Test.

                 John McCarthy

                 John  McCarthy  was  an  American  Computer  Scientist  and  Cognitive
                 Scientist. He is known as the “Father of Artificial Intelligence”.
                 He  developed  the  LISP  (an  acronym  for  List  Processing)  programming
                 language  and  soon  it  became  the  choice  of  programming  language.  In

                 1971 he received the Turing Award.

                                     Ross Quillian


                                     Ross  Quillian  was  a  leading  Scientist  and  Researcher  in  the  field  of
                                     electronics  and  communications  during  1960.  His  work  “SYNTHEX”  is
                                     widely accredited in the field of AI. In his project, Quillian developed the
                                     first semantic web.





                 Edward Feigenbaum

                 Edward  Feigenbaum  is  often  called  the,  “Father  of  Expert  Systems”.
                 He was the joint winner of 1994 ACM Turing Award.






                                      Marvin Minsky

                                      Marvin Minsky was an American Cognitive and Computer Scientist.

                                      He wrote the book ‘Perceptrons’ as his ground breaking work on Artificial
                                      Neural Networks.








                 IBM

                 IBM  company  stood  as  the  next  pioneer  in  the  field  of
                 Artificial Intelligence as it hit a major milestone with its
                 development and creation of Deep Blue. On February 10,
                 1997, it played against world renowned chess master Garry
                 Kasparov. For the first time AI won against a human.
