AI in Healthcare
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI AI systems are used in healthcare for image analysis, risk estimation, and candidate screening in drug research. They process medical images, clinical records, and sensor data and produce outputs for clinician or researcher review. Results depend on training data, evaluation design, and workflow integration. In radiology , models trained on labeled imaging datasets support segmentation, triage, and detection of specific findings in MRI, C

Core Concepts of AI
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI What is AI? Artificial intelligence is a set of methods that produce useful behavior from software systems. Common tasks include classification, prediction, ranking, search, planning, text generation, image generation, speech processing, and anomaly detection. Most modern AI systems learn from data during training rather than relying on hand written rules. Types of AI: narrow AI and AGI Most AI in use today is narrow AI. It performs a spe

The Resurgence of AI
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI AI research regained momentum in the twenty first century after several constraints that limited earlier work were removed. Increases in computing capacity, greater access to data, and improved learning methods made it possible to build systems that performed reliably outside narrow research settings. Growth in computing capacity was a direct enabler. Faster processors, graphics processing units, and specialized accelerators reduced train

The AI Winter
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI The AI Winter refers to a period of reduced funding and declining interest in artificial intelligence research during the late twentieth century. This slowdown was largely driven by overly optimistic expectations about AI capabilities and the absence of practical, scalable applications. Early researchers believed human level intelligence could be achieved within a few decades. When those expectations were not met, enthusiasm and financial

The People Behind the Machines
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI The development of AI reflects the contributions of many researchers, each bringing distinct ideas and perspectives. Their work has steadily expanded what machines can do and what we understand about computation and intelligence. Alan Turing , a British mathematician and computer scientist, is often associated with early foundations of AI through his work on computation and machine intelligence. In 1950, he proposed what later became know

From Ancient Myths to Modern Machines
Image generated with DALL-E by OpenAI The concept of artificial intelligence has roots in ancient myths and legends that featured artificial beings with human-like abilities. Greek mythology tells the tale of Talos, a giant bronze automaton created by Hephaestus, the god of fire and metalworking, to protect the island of Crete. Jewish folklore introduces the Golem, a humanoid figure made of clay, brought to life to protect the people. These early stories laid the groundwork f
