The Shortest History of AI (Experiment Llc)
Friday, 05 December 2025

This book tells the history of the development of artificial intelligence through its six essential animating ideas.  Toby Walsh explores how since Alan Turing first posed the question “Can machines think?” artificial intelligence has evolved from a speculative idea to a transformative force. He traces this evolution, from Ada Lovelace’s visionary work to IBM’s groundbreaking defeat of the chess world champion and the revolutionary emergence of ChatGPT.
