The artificial intelligence concept is an antique one. The algorithm was developed by a great scientist of the ancient world, the 9th-century Persian mathematician Muhammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī. Of course, the word algorithm itself is derived from his name. Certainly, in modern times, it was first introduced by Alan Turing in his Enigma and Imitation Game. The modern software technique was developed in 1955 by John McCarthy in the famous Dartmouth summer research project on artificial intelligence. The Nobel prize was awarded a few years after that to Herbert Simon for the development of such software. Computer scientists expected that in 10 or 20 years from then, a brain or machine would already be similar to human brains in a majority of aspects.

Herbert Simon was one of the founding fathers of artificial intelligence and provided his expectations of AI development in the following 10 or 20 years. He understood the future of machines and the utmost importance of computers. By 1965, Simon was certain that “machines will be capable of doing any work a man can do.” His visionary perspective on decision-making processes, climate change, and flaws in economic theories prove to be even more relevant and crucial in the 21st century. But Simon’s vision still needs to be extended even after 60 years after his first prediction.
