Artificial Intelligence
BY: JENIPHER GONZÁLEZ AND LEIDA VÁZQUEZ
Artificial Intelligence is a science that tries to make a machine to behave like a human.
John McCarthy, one of the fathers of (AI)1 defined it like this "the science and engineering of
making intelligent machines."2 McCarthy also believed “that computers can reason like
humans”3. AI is the ability to create a computer that can behave like humans; AI can understand
the language, beats in chess, even think like humans, that is Artificial Intelligence.
This part of science tried to make a replica of a human being when we no longer exist,
the machine will. All about AI was born in 1956, when a group of young scientist sat down and
talked about the future and they used government money to do their research. We have to
believed, ever since they are working for AI to come true. This is the destiny of our future.
