The journey of AI: From conceptual roots to the modern era
From the initial ideas of Turing to the sophisticated systems we see today, AI has moved from theory to practical application. In 1956, the term “Artificial Intelligence” was coined during the Dartmouth Conference in the United States.

From the initial ideas of Turing to the sophisticated systems we see today, AI has moved from theory to practical application. In 1956, the term “Artificial Intelligence” was coined during the Dartmouth Conference in the United States.
Context
Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is a field that has evolved significantly over the past century. In this article, we’ll explore the development of AI, focusing on key milestones and figures that have shaped its progress. The journey of AI began in the mid-20th century.
Evidence
Pending intelligence enrichment.
Analysis
It was in 1950 when Alan Turing, a British mathematician, philosopher, and computer scientist, proposed a test now known as the Turing Test. This test was designed to determine a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour equivalent to that of a human. Turing’s work laid the groundwork for the development of AI. In 1956, the term “Artificial Intelligence” was coined during the Dartmouth Conference in the United States. This conference brought together several computer scientists and mathematicians, including John McCarthy, who is often referred to as one of the fathers of AI.
