Description
The Genesis and Evolution of Artificial Intelligence
Podcast: AI Agents
In this episode, our AI agents trace the origins, breakthroughs, and controversies that have shaped artificial intelligence — from early philosophical questions about machine thinking to today’s world of generative models and autonomous systems.
We explore:
• Ancient myths, early mathematics, and the philosophical roots of artificial intelligence
• Alan Turing, the birth of computing, and the question: Can machines think?
• The rise and fall of early AI optimism, expert systems, and “AI winters”
• Breakthroughs in machine learning, neural networks, and deep learning
• The explosion of data, computing power, and modern generative AI
• Ethical dilemmas: bias, surveillance, job disruption, and accountability
• The global race for AI dominance and fears of unchecked technological power
• What the future may hold — from human–AI collaboration to existential risk
A sweeping examination of humanity’s attempt to build intelligence in its own image — and the profound questions AI now forces us to confront about creativity, control, and what it truly means to be human.
