AI Industry

I Boom and Bust

The ‘birth of AI’ emerged during the 1940s cybernetics movement, stemming from the idea that machines and humans might be fundamentally similar.

A question, ‘Can machines think?’, posed by Alan Turing in his paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence, sparked exploration in the field of artificial intelligence. In this work, Turing introduced the concept of the ‘Imitation Game,’ where scientists attempt to differentiate between a machine and a human based on thinking ability. Since that pivotal moment, researchers have been deeply engaged in advancing the field of AI.
