According to a Yahoo Finance article, AI has been a concept that has captivated tech experts, inventors, and sci-fi fans for decades. Surprisingly, the mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing conceived of AI computers as early as the 1950s! 🤖 Furthermore, the fact that the first AI program was created at Rand Corp. in 1956 is also quite interesting. Sci-fi author Isaac Asimov wrote 'I, Robot' in 1950, and director James Cameron's 'The Terminator' was released in 1984, both serving as evidence that AI had already deeply permeated our culture. 🎬
ChatGPT, the Catalyst for AI Popularization
So, what was the decisive moment that led AI to deeply penetrate our lives to this extent? It's said to be thanks to OpenAI's ChatGPT, released in November 2022. Upon its release, ChatGPT instantly acquired one million users, becoming the fastest-growing application in history. 📈
This explosive popularity of ChatGPT has ignited AI research and development globally. Now, even the largest companies on Earth are vying to invest heavily in the AI field. For instance, Meta Platforms is investing $17.01 billion, Alphabet $22.4 billion, Microsoft $24.2 billion (or $17.1 billion excluding finance leases), and Amazon $31.4 billion in AI. (Data source: Each company's SEC filings) 💰 Looking at these figures, it's truly immense, isn't it?
How Will AI Change Our Lives in the Future?
The fact that such enormous capital is being poured into AI technology development can be seen as a powerful signal that AI will bring about innovative changes across our society and industries. Just as the internet changed the world, AI also possesses the potential to transform our daily lives, work methods, and even our perspectives on the world. 🤔
