Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a university textbook on artificial intelligence, written by Patrick Henry Winston. It was first published in 1977, and the third edition of the book was released in 1992.[1]
Content[edit]
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. The intended audience includes engineers, computer scientists, psychologists, biologists, linguists, or philosophers.[2]: Back cover [3][4]
Editions[edit]
Three editions were published in total (1977,[5] 1984,[6] 1992[1]). The first edition included a section on Lisp programming.[7]: Preface The second edition removed the Lisp section, and added chapters on logic, and learning.[8]: Preface Implementation details for the second edition were provide by the companion book, LISP second edition (Winston and Horn).[9]: Preface The third edition was significantly changed, adding a section on learning, including neural nets. The third edition was also updated to reflect changes in computer performance that had occurred since the second edition was published, and to address artificial intelligence at scale.[2]: Preface
