Artificial Intelligence – The Rise of Intelligent Agents – Part 1/3

The road to intelligent machines has been difficult, filled with hairpin curves, steep hills, crevices, potholes, intersections, stop signs, and occasionally smooth and straight sections. The initial over-the-top optimism of AI founders John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Allen Newell, and Herbert …

The Beginning of Artificial Intelligence – Part 2/2 (Conclusion)

AI research funding was a roller-coaster ride from the mid-1960s through about the mid-1990s, experiencing incredible highs and lows. By the late 1990s through the early part of the twenty-first century, however, AI research began a resurgence, finding new applications …
