   Is Ai a science or engineering?

   • A. It is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs. It is related to the similar task of using computers to understand human intelligence, but AI does not have to confine itself to methods that are biologically observable. Q. Yes, but what is intelligence?

   Who was the first person to study AI?

   • The English mathematician Alan Turing may have been the first. He gave a lecture on it in 1947. He also may have been the first to decide that AI was best researched by programming computers rather than by building machines. By the late 1950s, there were many researchers on AI, and most of them were basing their work on programming computers.

   When did John McCarthy develop the circumscription method of non-monotonic reasoning?

   • From 1978 to 1986, McCarthy developed the circumscription method of non-monotonic reasoning. [14,15] Circumscription is a non-monotonic logic created by John McCarthy to formalize the common sense assumption that things are as expected unless otherwise specified.
