Throughout the existence of humanity, technological advancements have transformed entire civilizations. Though some of these innovations may seem recent, their development was often hundreds of years in the making. The ideas and inventions behind artificial intelligence can be traced back centuries, long before the creation of the computer.
Similarly to previous revolutionary technologies, the average person will increasingly use AI in their daily lives as the technology becomes more powerful, cheaper, and accessible to everyone. AIPRM has compiled an extensive timeline of breakthroughs to examine the developments that led to today’s AI.
Before AI, there had to be a series of great thinkers, innovators, and inventors to pioneer the field. Interest in concepts surrounding intelligent automata and artificially created humans can be traced back to Ancient Greece. Around 700 B.C., the Ancient Greek poet Hesiod created the story of Talos, one of the earliest conceptions of an automaton. Talos was a giant bronze man created to protect the island of Crete by Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire, stone masonry, metalworking, and the artisans. Homer, one of the world’s most renowned poets, introduced the word “automaton” in his poems Iliad and Odyssey to describe machines that moved independently through their own internal energy—not unlike the inner workings of the human body.
Outside of Ancient Greece, the conception of intelligent machinery can also be seen among philosophers, authors, and scholars. The three Persian Banū Mūsā brothers became the first Arab scholars to master Greek mathematics in the 9th century AD with their invention of the world’s first programmable machine: a mechanical musical instrument played by pins on a revolving cylinder. Al-Khwarizmi, translated as Algoritmi in Latin, was a Persian polymath known as the Father of Algebra. Due to his contributions to mathematics, the word algorithm is derived from his Latin name.
In the matter of ethics, Aristotle’s framework still serves as a cornerstone for AI. Aristotle, a philosopher and polymath from Ancient Greece, introduced concepts that indirectly influenced many of the AI ethics and logical reasoning we have today. Aristotle’s theory of formal reasoning, better known as syllogism, suggested combining two different premises to arrive at a conclusion. Centuries later, syllogism would serve as an early model of formal logic for artificial intelligence.
John McCarthy, an American computer scientist and professor at Dartmouth College, is often credited as the inventor of artificial intelligence in the modern field. He coined the phrase in 1955 in a proposal for his project for the Dartmouth Conference. Thanks to McCarthy’s work, the term can now be applied retroactively to previous significant breakthroughs in artificial intelligence. In 1958, McCarthy also invented the first AI programming language called Lisp. Though other programming languages have surpassed its prevalence, Lisp influenced subsequent languages such as Python and JavaScript.
Alan Turing, an English computer scientist and mathematician, is another significant name from that era in AI. In 1936, he introduced the hypothetical model known as the Turing machine to define the logical structure of any computing device. In 1950, Turing questioned the ability of machines to think in his paper titled “Computing Machinery and Intelligence,” published in MIND, a leading journal in philosophy. He brought forth the imitation game, or what is now deemed the Turing Test, to assess the intelligence of machines. The test judged a machine’s ability to exhibit responses that would be indistinguishable from a human being’s response in the same conversation.
In 1965, an MIT professor named Joseph Weizenbaum developed the first AI chatbot, ELIZA. ELIZA used pattern recognition to simulate human conversation by picking up on patterns from the interlocutor. However, ELIZA could only work within the confines of predefined rules. This chatbot became the earliest model of generative AI, or AI that can generate text, images, videos, and other data based on a prompt. Thanks to the invention of ELIZA, we now have chatbots like ChatGPT, DALL-E, and Midjourney.
Artificial intelligence, in the capacity and accessibility that it has today, is unprecedented. AI can improve society and the average person’s life in various ways. For example, artificial intelligence has already been used to develop vaccines in healthcare. As more advanced technology integrates into hospitals, doctors can use it to personalize treatment plans and ensure more accurate diagnostics.
For the individual, AI can augment work across many industries. This allows the person to leave behind the more menial tasks and put effort and energy towards grander endeavors. In the process of decision-making, AI provides another support system to discuss and rationalize thoughts and ideas. Additionally, AI can act like a personalized life coach in finance, health, and general wellness areas.
To effectively utilize AI, one should understand what AI encompasses and how to navigate it. Users can introduce better-customized prompts to deliver more relevant answers or responses. Since this technology is ever-developing, regulations are continuously created and adjusted all around us. Each nation may have its own rules surrounding AI, so following your country’s laws is essential. This is particularly important if using AI for commercial purposes.
Event and Date | Description |
---|---|
Ancient Greece Greek myths explore the idea of intelligent automata and artificially created humans |
Talos was a giant bronze automaton tasked with protecting Crete, circling the shores thrice daily. Creating machines that mimicked living things was a popular subject for myths and a goal for many Greek engineers. |
8th century BCE Homer’s epic poems Iliad and Odyssey introduce the term “automaton” |
The word automaton is derived from the Ancient Greek αὐτόματον, which means “acting of one’s own will.” In his epic poems, he describes Golden Maidens (“Kourai Khryseai”), automatons capable of speech and learning. There are also intelligent Phaeacian ships capable of navigating on their own. |
4th century BCE Aristotle describes syllogisms |
A syllogism, or a rule of inference, is a form of logical reasoning that consists of two premises leading to a conclusion. An example of a syllogism is: “All mammals are animals. All cows are mammals. Therefore, all cows are animals.” This type of deductive reasoning is foundational for AI to mimic human decision-making. |
4th century BCE Aristotle predicts AI performing labor |
In his work Politics, Aristotle speculated that automata could abolish slavery and bring about equality, stating that: “There is only one condition in which we can imagine managers not needing subordinates, and masters not needing slaves. This condition would be that each instrument could do its own work, at the word of command or by intelligent anticipation, like the statues of Daedalus or the tripods made by Hephaestus.” |
