Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is typically defined as a system that performs at least as well as humans in most or all intellectual tasks. [42] A 2022 survey of AI researchers found that 90% of respondents expected AGI would be achieved in the next 100 years, and half expected the same by 2061. [43]
Dave Langford reviewed The Robots of Dawn for White Dwarf #53, and stated that "It's a cerebral book, with the intellectual pattern of the crime unravelling bit by bit in a skilled display of pacing and plotting, while the high point of physical excitement merely consists of Baley getting caught out in the rain (a quite effective scene, thanks to his agoraphobia)."
Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.

Artificial intelligence is a recurrent theme in science fiction, whether utopian, emphasising the potential benefits, or dystopian, emphasising the dangers.

Douglas Richard Hofstadter (born February 15, 1945) is an American cognitive and computer scientist whose research includes concepts such as the sense of self in relation to the external world, [3] [4] consciousness, analogy-making, strange loops, artificial intelligence, and discovery in mathematics and physics.
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 ...
The book is intended to explain how computers reason and perceive, and introduce the field of artificial intelligence. It describes the field, both as a branch of engineering and as a science, providing a computational perspective. Ideas for representing knowledge, using knowledge, and building practical systems are provided.
