              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 a

              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'.
