In the 21st century, people are beginning to rely
on Artificial Intelligence. To what extent eventually for logic and reasoning
no one knows.
In the late 17th century and early 20th century,
Issac Newton lived. Through his mathematics, he made clear the past, present
and future. Because of his calculations, humankind finally could know where a
celestial object had been in the deep past, where it would in the present, and
where it would be no matter how far in the future. Newton had unlocked
knowledge that humankind since it began had lacked until him. Issac Newton’s
mind was a kind of “artificial intelligence,” but there was nothing artificial
about it. Yet, for his time, his way of thinking was what is now in the 21st
century is called Artificial Intelligence.
People in the 21st century now take his intellectual
accomplishments casually and for granted. Yet, in his time and for centuries
thereafter, the results of his work were and are supremely powerful. There was
nothing artificial about his thinking --- it was completely natural. His
thinking was akin to a computer --- what we might describe today as “artificial”
intelligence.
