History of AI

Turing asked in 1950 whether a machine could fool a judge in chat — the Turing Test. The name “Artificial Intelligence” is from the 1956 Dartmouth meeting. Winters came when hype beat results. Expert systems in the 80s, then statistical ML, then deep nets after ImageNet ~2012, then large language models.

Fresher line: Turing → Dartmouth → winters → expert systems → ML → deep learning → today’s chat models. Don’t mug only years. Say why each wave mattered: rules, then data, then compute + nets.

Output — idea / do / check for History of AI. Fill those three in the viva.

Exam tip

Turing + Dartmouth + one modern wave.

Example

# History of AI
print("idea :", "History of AI")
print("do   : one tiny example on paper")
print("check: one failure case")

Output: idea / do / check for History of AI. Fill those three in the viva.

Short notes

DefTuring 1950. Dartmouth 1956 named AI.
RuleWinters when hype > results.
RememberDeep learning after ImageNet.
