A timely addition to the Shortest History series―everything you need to know about AI in six essential ideas. Since Alan Turing first posed the question “Can machines think?” Artificial Intelligence has evolved from a speculative idea to a transformative force. The Shortest History of AI traces this evolution, from Ada Lovelace’s visionary work to IBM’s groundbreaking defeat of the chess world champion and the revolutionary emergence of ChatGPT. It also explores AI’s cultural journey, touching on classics such as Frankenstein, A Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. This short history is therefore divided into two parts. In the first part, I explore the early, symbolic era of Artificial Intelligence. This is a time in which computers conquered chess and many other human games. But it was also a time of frustration, when we discovered how hard it was going to be to move beyond simple games and build AI. This should be reassuring. Intelligence is complex. Building it in silicon hasn’t proved easy. In the second part of this history, I explore the more recent learning era of Artificial Intelligence.
