Preface
As humans, we go through ups and downs throughout our lives. No matter what age we pass, it seems life continues to give us experiences of highs and lows, making us all shift directions. This happened to me after my back surgery in September 2016. After I survived major back surgery, I realized my goals in life dramatically changed. My interest did as well. However, the compulsiveness to learn did not change. I started reading many books on blockchain, and when I wasn’t nose-deep into this subject, I started being amazed with Artificial Intelligence.
The truth is, I was so hooked on the subject. I found myself continually asking what if you did this and did that… the subject truly started taking over many aspects of ideas.
However, one thing was greatly flawed with them all...
AI needed some sort of validation aspect.
And I kept thinking, if you do something with AI, who is validating the outputs? That’s when I realized I needed to start a company called AI Blockchain Ventures.
AI is for the automation aspects of my ideas, and Blockchain is the validation mechanism for the AI. And let's face it, we all love ventures… therefore a new company was formed, and I thought what better way to share all my knowledge with everyone than to write a book on the subject of AI. However, the most important thing I feel worth sharing is the ability to put your cell phone down and enjoy the now. The thing is, technology is not made to be put away. This is why I wrote this book for you. We are moving into new times, and it’s truly just starting.
Chapter 1: Humanity
In the annals of human history, few phenomena have had as profound an impact as the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The twenty-first century has witnessed an unprecedented surge in technological advancement, where AI has emerged as the transformative force shaping our societies, economies, and daily lives. This chapter delves into the intricate relationship between humanity and AI, exploring the remarkable ways in which humans have adapted to the ever-evolving landscape of technology.
The Rise of Artificial Intelligence
The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge. It represents a journey that spans decades and is characterized by innovation, scientific breakthroughs, and the collective ambition to recreate human-like intelligence in machines.
The foundations of AI can be traced back to the mid-20th century when computer scientists and mathematicians began exploring the concept of machine intelligence. Pioneers like Alan Turing, often regarded as the father of AI, laid the theoretical groundwork with his famous Turing Test, which proposed that a machine could be considered intelligent if it could mimic human conversation to the point of indistinguishability.
During this nascent period, the focus was on developing algorithms and symbolic logic to solve problems that required human-like reasoning and decision-making. Researchers aimed to replicate human cognitive processes using formal logic and rules-based systems.
The journey of AI was marked by periods of optimism and subsequent AI winters.
These were phases when the AI community faced challenges and setbacks, leading to reduced funding and interest. The first AI winter occurred in the 1970s and 1980s when early AI projects failed to deliver on their lofty promises, causing a downturn in funding and enthusiasm.
However, AI researchers persevered, and subsequent waves of innovation emerged, driven by breakthroughs in areas such as expert systems, natural language processing, and neural networks. The resurgence of interest in AI led to its renaissance in the late 20th
