Artificial intelligence
Cache is NOT at posted Coordinates
Artificial intelligence (AI) has its roots in ancient philosophical ideas, but it began to take modern form in the mid-20th century with advances in computing and formal logic. The term “AI” was coined in 1956 at the Dartmouth Conference, sparking early research into neural networks, language processing, and reasoning systems.
In 1958: John McCarthy develops LISP, a programming language designed for AI.
Programs like ELIZA, a language processor simulating human conversation, and SHRDLU, which reasoned about objects in a virtual world, demonstrated the early promise of AI.
Breakthroughs in AI came when IBM’s Deep Blue defeated a chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997. He was the reigning world chess champion at the time and is considered one of the greatest chess players in history. Deep Blue defeated him in a six-game match, marking the first time a computer beat a world champion in a match under standard tournament conditions.
The rise of machine learning in the 2010s reignited interest. Today, AI powers popular virtual assistants like Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant, and ChatGPT, personalizing shopping via Search engines and Amazon, Facebook marketplace as well as streaming recommendations on Netflix and YouTube, and enhancing customer service through chatbots. Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how we live and work.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is used in a wide range of applications across nearly every industry. In healthcare, it aids in diagnosis, medical imaging and personalized treatment. AI also drives innovations in transportation with self-driving cars, traffic prediction, and route optimization. AI is also used in logistics and delivery planning (e.g., UPS, Amazon). In finance, it detects fraud and manages investments, while in education, it supports personalized learning, virtual tutors and accessibility tools. Creative industries use AI for art, writing, and music generation. It plays key roles in security (Facial recognition, anomaly detection and threat analysis), manufacturing (industrial robots, monitoring equipment for predictive maintenance, and managing supply chains) and in agriculture (Crop monitoring, yield prediction, pest detection, and autonomous tractors), and more—making it one of the most versatile technologies today.
