Evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Artificial Intelligence first emerged in the year 1956. Since then, the artificial intelligence has evolved by many folds.
Following diagram depicts the history of AI:
The word "Artificial Intelligence" After several reports criticising
Allen Newell and Herbert A. Simon was first adopted by American progress in AI, government funding

with the Japanese.
1974
Alan Turing, was an English mathematician, and
1950 pioneered Machine learning. He published "Computing
Machinery and Intelligence" in which he proposed

was done by Warren McCulloch and (Also called “The Imitation Game”)
Walter Pitts in 1943. They proposed a
model of artificial neurons.
IBM's Deep Blue became the first 1997
computer to beat a chess champion-
2011 Russian grandmaster Garry Kasparov.
IBM Watson won the quiz show "Jeopardy!" by beating
reigning champions Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings.
