The earliest examples of artificial life involve sophisticated automata constructed using pneumatics, mechanics, and/or hydraulics.The first automata were conceived during the third and second centuries BC and these were demonstrated by the theorems of Hero of Alexandria, which included sophisticated mechanical and hydraulic solutions.

Artificial life (ALife or A-Life) is a field of study wherein researchers examine systems related to natural life, its processes, and its evolution, through the use of simulations with computer models, robotics, and biochemistry. [1]
The history of artificial intelligence (AI) began in antiquity, with myths, stories, and rumors of artificial beings endowed with intelligence or consciousness by master craftsmen. The study of logic and formal reasoning from antiquity to the present led directly to the invention of the programmable digital computer in the 1940s, a machine ...
Steve Grand, roboticist and computer scientist, develops and releases Creatures, a popular simulation of artificial life-forms with simulated biochemistry, neurology with learning algorithms and inheritable digital DNA. 1997 The Deep Blue chess machine defeats the (then) world chess champion, Garry Kasparov.
Genesis Redux: Essays in the History and Philosophy of Artificial Life is a 2007 book edited by Jessica Riskin. It is a collection of essays about the history of the making of mechanicals in an attempt to emulate or recreate life.
The history of artificial intelligence is one of an almost sectarian struggle between opposing approaches to solving the challenge of creating machines that could learn and “think” like people ...
John McCarthy is one of the "founding fathers" of artificial intelligence, together with Alan Turing, Marvin Minsky, Allen Newell, and Herbert A. Simon. McCarthy, Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester and Claude E. Shannon coined the term "artificial intelligence" in a proposal that they wrote for the famous Dartmouth conference in Summer 1956. This ...
“With this DARPA grant, X-Hab 3D will be developing carbon-neutral material formulations for artificial reefs along coastlines,” Sven Bilen, X-Hab 3D’s systems engineering lead, said.
