Cognitive scientist and Dartmouth professor John McCarthy coined the term\u00a0artificial intelligence<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(AI<\/strong>) in 1955 when he began his exploration of whether machines could learn and develop formal reasoning like humans.

Dan Vesset, group vice president, analytics and information management, at market research firm IDC, warns, \u201cIf you\u2019re not starting to invest, there\u2019s the real possibility of being left behind forever.\u201d Read On: <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
