History

Historical Context

The Dartmouth Conference in 1956, organized by John McCarthy and Marvin Minsky, marked the formal inception of artificial intelligence (AI) as an academic discipline. The event introduced the term "artificial intelligence" and showcased early programs like the Logic Theorist. Since then, AI has evolved significantly, with companies like OpenAI developing advanced models, leading to transformative impacts on workforce dynamics and education.
