The Culture
of Artificial Intelligence
STORIES, PEOPLE, COMPANIES AND SCENARIOS
Artificial intelligence culture is far more than a story of computers and algorithms: it’s a human story, shaped by visions, failures, extraordinary intuitions and unexpected revolutions. Exploring it means understanding not only how this technology has developed until today, but who brought us here and in which direction it could go.
The History of Artificial Intelligence: From Turing to the Present Day.
Seventy years ago, Artificial Intelligence was little more than a theoretical hypothesis, the visionary dream of a handful of mathematicians convinced that machines could one day learn to reason. Today, the once ‘science-fi’ technology they had imagined can answer our questions, drive our cars, and much more. Let’s explore a fascinating story that, in many ways, still manages to surprise.

In 1956, during the Dartmouth Conference, an event considered of fundamental importance for the birth of AI as we know it today, the participants were convinced that the new technology would need just one summer to reach maturity (!). It took nearly seventy years instead… and the best is yet to come.

Anthropic's Claude: the 'ethical' AI.
To ensure that the LLM Claude behaves in a safe and responsible manner, Anthropic developed an original method called “Constitutional AI”: a set of ethical principles that the model uses to autonomously evaluate and correct its own responses, reducing dependence on human feedback alone.
