Origins Donald Hebb (1949) Hebbian Learning McCulloch and Pitts (1943) Model of Artificial Neurons. Conference at Dartmouth (1956) McCarthy, Minsky, Shannon, Nathaniel, Samuel (IBM), Solomonoff, Newell and Simon. Newell and Simon General Problem Solver
Origins McCarthy LISP (1958) Samuel (1952) Learning to play checkers Minsky’s Microworlds (1963) Blocks world Rosenblatt (1963) Perceptrons (convergence theorem) Simon’s prediction: “computers will beat a chess champion in 10 years” “a significant theorem will be proved by a machine”
Later on… The knowledge problem. “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak” “The vodka is good but the meat is rotten” US government funding was cancelled (1966) Knowledge based-methods (1969-79) Buchanan with DENDRAL (molecular info. from a mass spectrometer) Minksy and Papert Book Perceptron (1969) Expert Systems MYCIN (diagnose blood infections)
AI becomes Industry (1980 – today) More expert systems. Systems using Prolog. After 1988 companies suffered. The return of Neural Networks Hopfield (1982) Data Mining Bayesian Networks Robotics Computer Vision AI for the Web AI becomes Science neats beat scruffies
