Summary
The history of Artificial Intelligence is the autobiography of the human mind.
From the clockwork automata of the Enlightenment to the generative power of Large Language Models, this volume traces the radical evolution of automated reasoning. It dissects the intellectual wars between the Architects of Logic and the Gardeners of Neural Networks, revealing how the field moved from the brittle certainty of Expert Systems to the opaque intuition of Deep Learning.
A History of Artificial Intelligence distills complex technical revolutions (Backpropagation, Transformers, and Reinforcement Learning) into lucid, elegant prose. It explores the "Black Box" of modern algorithms, the philosophical stakes of the Alignment Problem, and the future of synthetic thought.
This is not a textbook. It is a framework for understanding the speciation event of our time. For readers who demand depth over hype, this is the definitive map of the machine age.
