Artificial Intelligence is known as a ‘systems ability to interpret data, to learn from the data and to use those findings to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible adaptation.’ (Haenlein and Kaplan, 2020) Alan Turing was one of the first people to explore the mathematic possibility of artificial intelligence. He discussed this in his 1950’s paper called “Computer machinery and intelligence.” Unfortunately, it did not work for Alan Turing but why? Firstly, computers needed to fundamentally change. Computers were told what to do but needed to remember what they were told to do. Secondly, Computing was very expensive. (Anyoha, 2017) Five years later, it was initialised by Allen Newell, Herbert Simons and Cliff Shaw. This was done through the logic theorist. The Logic Theorist was a program designed to mimic the problem-solving skills of humans. (History-computer.com, 2020) This was considered the first Artificial Intelligence program which was presented at the Dartmouth summer research project on artificial intelligence in 1956. From 1957 to 1974, artificial intelligence flourished. Computers could now store more information it was faster and cheaper making it more successful. The goal was to be able to problem solve and get the interpretation of certain languages. However, they still had a long way to go. The biggest obstacle was that the computer was unable to store enough information to process with high speed. (Anyoha, 2017) In the 1980’s, artificial intelligence became reignited. Edward Feigenbaum created expert systems. Expert systems had decision making abilities of a human expert. These were widely popular, and The Japanese Government heavily funded the expert systems and other AI projects. During this time huge improvements were made. Between the 1990’s and 2000’s AI had reached most of its goals. How did they do this? Over the years the memory and speed of computers improved allowing us to create AI programs in all industries such as banking, marketing and technology. (Anyoha, 2017) Artificial intelligence is still used globally for many advancements in different industries. Particularly the beauty industry which our blogs will be about. 😊 Bibliography:
