Over 300 AI companies had shut down, gone bankrupt, or been acquired by the end of 1993, effectively ending the first commercial wave of AI. [195] In 1994, HP Newquist stated in The Brain Makers that "The immediate future of artificial intelligence—in its commercial form—seems to rest in part on the continued success of neural networks."
He was called "the 20th century's first AI pioneer". [9] In his Essays on Automatics (1914), Torres published speculation about thinking and automata and introduced the idea of floating-point arithmetic. [42] [43] 1923 Karel Čapek's play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots) opened in London. This is the first use of the word "robot" in English. [44]
Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.

1950s. Pioneering machine learning research is conducted using simple algorithms. 1960s. Bayesian methods are introduced for probabilistic inference in machine learning. [1] 1970s. ' AI winter ' caused by pessimism about machine learning effectiveness. 1980s. Rediscovery of backpropagation causes a resurgence in machine learning research.
Considering Nvidia’s stock price has risen from $15 a share in August 2016 when Huang gifted Musk the first AI supercomputer to $779 a share, it appears he made the right call.
Glossary. v. t. e. Artificial general intelligence ( AGI) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that matches or surpasses human capabilities across a wide range of cognitive tasks. [ 1] This is in contrast to narrow AI, which is designed for specific tasks. [ 2] AGI is considered one of various definitions of strong AI .
Backpropagation is an efficient application of the chain rule derived by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in 1673 [27] to networks of differentiable nodes. The terminology "back-propagating errors" was actually introduced in 1962 by Rosenblatt, [28] but he did not know how to implement this, although Henry J. Kelley had a continuous precursor of backpropagation in 1960 in the context of control ...
