The First AI Program Was Written in 1951 by a 23-Year-Old - Apparently.
In 1951, a 23-year-old computer scientist named Alan Turing created the Automatic Computing Engine (ACE), a pioneering AI program. The ACE used a mathematical model to solve problems, making it a groundbreaking achievement in the field of artificial intelligence. Turing's work on the ACE laid the foundation for modern computer science and AI research.
This fact is verifiable through Turing's published papers and historical records from the time.
