The term "Artificial Intelligence" was first coined in 1956 by John McCarthy at the Dartmouth Conference, considered the birthplace of AI.

Modern AI image generators can create detailed visuals from text descriptions in seconds, a task that would take human artists hours or days.

AI systems can now compose music, write poetry, and create art that's increasingly difficult to distinguish from human-created works.

Large Language Models (LLMs) like those powering ChatGPT are trained on hundreds of billions of words from books, articles, and websites.

The computing power required to train advanced AI models has doubled approximately every 3.4 months since 2012, far outpacing Moore's Law.

AI tools are now being used to accelerate scientific research, including drug discovery and climate modeling, potentially solving complex problems faster than traditional methods.
