People Started to have Ideas about AI
At the end of World War 2 Alan Turing a mathematician and Grey Walter a neurologist tackled the challenges of artificial intelligence. They shared ideas at a dining group they called the Ratio Club. Later Turing invented the Turing test. The test was that a computer that could fool a human into thinking they were talking to another person. -
Arthur Samuel
Arthur Samuel was a pioneer in the field of computing, gaming and artificial intelligence. Samuel invented the word's first self-learning program which was called the Samuel Checkers-playing Program. -
Asimov and The Three Laws of Robotics
Asimov was a biochemistry professor but also a writer. He wrote a lot of science fiction books that helped inspire generations of robotics and scientists. Asimov was famous and well known for creating the Three Laws of Robotics. These laws were designed to stop our artificial intelligence from harming humans. Asimov also believed that there could be a computer capable of storing human knowledge in it. -
Alan Turing and The Turong Test
Alan Turing was a computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist. He was known for creating a machine that was used to break enemy German Enigma codes in World War 2. He was also renowned for developing the Turning test. The Turing test was used to determine whether a computer was intelligent or not. -
John McCarthy
A scientist, John McCarthy held a summer conference at Dartmouth University and he invented the term 'artificial intelligence'. -
John McCarthy Introduced LISP
After McCarthy coined the term artificial intelligence he developed the Lisp programming language. Lisp was very significant in the early develop on AI. -
Dr Weizenbaum and the ELIZA program
The ELIZA was a language processing computer program that was created by Joseph Weizenbaum from 1963 to 1966. It was created to show the reality of communication between man and machine. -
Edward Feigenbaum and the First Expert System
Expert systems were first introduced over 10 years by the Stanford Heuristic Programming Project and was created by Edward Feigenbaum who was also call the father of expert systems. Expert systems were used to make conclusions in a way similar to humans.
