Abstract

The development of Artificial Intelligence has had a significant impact on various sectors of society, including business, academia, and government. Recent advancements have been made possible by contributions from the past. This historical review explores key developments in Artificial Intelligence, from its conception in Greek mythology to the latest innovations of 2023, organized into four phases. The first phase, Ancient Conceptions, addresses early notions of Artificial Intelligence in Greek mythology and the first automata developed. The second phase, The Beginnings of Modern Artificial Intelligence, examines the initial advancements in formal Artificial Intelligence research. The third phase, Expansion and Setbacks, is marked by growth in key areas such as Expert Systems. The fourth phase, Resurgence of Artificial Intelligence, corresponds to the field's revitalization, driven by deep learning. Through a chronological analysis of more than 150 information sources, including scientific articles, books, and historical documents, this review provides a comprehensive overview of Artificial Intelligence evolution. Additionally, the work describes several Artificial Intelligence solutions implemented across Peruvian business and governmental spheres.
