Artificial intelligence, a field formally established in 1956 at the Dartmouth workshop, is now a transformative technology reshaping many aspects of life. Its roots trace back to early 20th-century cybernetics and neural network models, with Alan Turing's 1950 paper posing the question of machine intelligence and introducing the Turing test. The field has evolved significantly from early expert systems to modern machine learning and deep learning, with IEEE contributing substantially to its progress and adoption. AI
