The introduction of computers to the production line has allowed the construction and assembly of parts to become increasingly automated. ... In addition to machine tools, other areas of the production line are becoming automated. ... Flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) have been introduced where a computer has control of the entire production line. ... As an example, a sensor on a production line might indicate that a certain part was faulty. ... A computer, without the benefit of human reasoning, would only be able to say the part was faulty and halt production. ...

I wish to accomplish how it came about, the reasoning behind artificial intelligence, and where I think it will go in the future based on my research on this topic. ... Another mathematician, Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz, improved Pascal's machine and made his own contribution to the philosophy of reasoning by proposing an easier way by making an equation. (We should love these guys; they pretty much invented the calculator.)4 Many of the leading thinkers of the 18th and 19th century were convinced that a formal reasoning system, based on a kind of mathematics, could encode all human...

Hardly anything defines modern life better than the computer. Whether we like it or not, computers have infiltrated every aspect of our society. Today computers do much more than simply compute. For instance: supermarket scanners calculate our bill while keeping store inventory, computerized telephone switching centers play traffic cop to millions of calls and keep lines of communication untangled, and ATM's let us conduct banking transactions from virtually anywhere in the world. But where did all this technology come from and where is it heading? ...
