"Who Is Behind the Modern Artificial Intelligence Movement:"
ArtificialIntelligence (AI) is an ever-evolving field with the potential to transform our
daily lives, driving major advances. Recent breakthroughs in research are
driven by talented researchers, tech executives, and venture capitalists - so
who exactly are those behind AI now?
AI
has an expansive history dating back to early computing. Some early pioneers of
this discipline include:
*
Alan Turing was an influential British mathematician and computer scientist
regarded by many as being one of the fathers of both theoretical computer
science and artificial intelligence. Turing's name has become synonymous with
his iconic "Turing Test", an ability test designed to assess whether
machines exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent or indistinguishable from that
of humans (info.isabelhealthcare.com).
Alan
Turing was considered to be one of the founders of Artificial Intelligence;
John McCarthy coined the phrase 'artificial intelligence" in 1955 at
Dartmouth Summer Research Project on Artificial Intelligence which many
consider the beginnings of AI research and study.
