50 YEARS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Campus in Multidisciplinary Perception and Intelligence, CMPI-2006


OVERVIEW

On the 31st August 1955, J. McCarthy (Dartmouth College, New Hampshire), M. L. Minsky (Harvard University), N. Rochester (I.B.M. Corporation) and C. E. Shannon (Bell Telephone Laboratories) proposed a meeting to a group of researchers to be held in the summer of 1956 in order to provide ideas on each aspect of learning and each feature of intelligence capable of being simulated on machines. During the encounter, later known as the Dartmouth Conference, the term Artificial Intelligence (AI) was coined. In 2006, the 50th anniversary of the Dartmouth Conference will be celebrated worldwide.

In 2006 we celebrate the fifty years of the Dartmouth Conference. But, despite all the time passed, the problem of finding the precise descriptions of the features of the brain and the mind mentioned in the 1955 proposal still remains open today. The 50 Years of Artificial Intelligence will be celebrated in different places all around the world.

 

Albacete (Spain) and its "50 Years of Artificial Intelligence: Campus in Multidisciplinary Perception and Intelligence, CMPI-2006" will be the most important place for this international event in Spanish language. Some international journals have decided to launch special issues dedicated to disseminate the celebration of this absolutely amazing summit.
