By Ray Kurzweil

Categories: Computers & Technology, Science & Math

The Age of Intelligent Machines, first published in 1990, is Ray Kurzweil's survey of the history and prospects of artificial intelligence, from early calculating machines and the work of Alan Turing to rule-based systems and pattern recognition. Kurzweil, joined by essays from researchers and philosophers, predicts that computers will beat world chess champions and that machine intelligence will transform work, medicine, education and communication in the following decades.
