AI Explainer Series #1: History and Origins of AI

You may find this infographic useful if you want to get an overview of the history and origins of AI, especially some of the mechanisms and concepts that underpin much of what we take for granted these days.It's the first in an explainer series I'm producing that will summarise background info if you're involved in an AI project, or studying for a certification from say, BCS, IAPP or ISACA, among others. More to come in the coming weeks and months. As I mention at the foot of the document, these are my selected highlights - there are so many things I could have included - the challenge was what to leave out. Perhaps you would not have included some of what I've chosen?
