As a science (like biology, history and so on) it has appeared in the middle of the 20th century with publications, the first neural network computer and self-learning program to play checkers.
Since that time scientists have been developing computer systems for solving intellectual tasks – from chess-playing to automotive driving.
Machine learning, deep learning, computer vision and natural language processing are AI technologies,
training computers to accomplish different kinds of tasks by using different methods and algorithms (processing large amounts of data and recognizing patterns in the data for example).
