BYTE BITS FRIDAY
Hey there! It’s Aaron.
Welcome back to Byte Bits Friday!
Previously, I dove into the basics of Large Language Models (LLMs), Predictive Analytics, and Robotic Process Automation (RPA).
But today?
Oh, today, we’re going back in time to uncover the fascinating history of AI… how it grew from Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Machine Learning (ML) to Deep Learning (DL), and finally to the showstopper we all know and love, Generative AI (GenAI).
Sure, GenAI has been stealing the spotlight lately, but it didn’t just show up out of nowhere.
It’s the result of decades of innovation, experimentation, and, let’s face it, a lot of trial and error.
So, how did we get here?
Let me take you on a journey.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
The AI journey began in the 1950s, when brilliant minds dared to dream of machines that could think and learn like humans.
Imagine the buzz back then… scientists geeking out over the idea of intelligent systems that could analyze data, recognize patterns, and make decisions on their own.
AI is essentially this: machines simulating human intelligence.
It’s like having a tireless assistant who can crunch insane amounts of data and make decisions faster than you can decide what to order for lunch.
Why is AI Important?
AI is transforming industries left and right. Think of it as the invisible force behind everything, from your friendly smart assistant to cutting-edge robotics.
It’s the foundation for all the cool stuff like Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning (DL), and Generative AI (GenAI).
Without AI, we wouldn’t even be talking about these other game-changers.
