Researchers have known that “artificial neurons” could carry out logical functions—i.e., learn the way humans do—since 1943. The term “artificial intelligence” has been around since its introduction at a science conference at Dartmouth University in 1956. But only in the past several years have we started seeing theory put into practice the way those researchers imagined. We now have machines that can translate languages, compose music, write novels, and operate vehicles.
