Abstract
The history of artificial intelligence is complicated. We cannot pinpoint where it all started. Some might say it began in the 1956 Dartmouth Conference when John McCarthy and his peers coined the term ‘artificial intelligence' for the first time. The term ‘robot' was coined in a Sci-Fi Play in 1920. We can find hints of similar ideas in ancient myths and scriptures, ideas about automata and intelligent creatures forged by men. AI is a vast and fascinating subject. The chapter presents an overview of the history of artificial intelligence. It also talks about the emergence and different sub-branches of AI and the theoretical foundation, frameworks, and theories related to them. After that its applications in the modern world and the challenges and Risks are also discussed.
