                  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.                       Alan Turing                 Bombe

                  One  of the greatest  achievements 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'.
