Artificial intelligence has advanced through the years. What started as a thought-provoking idea has now become one of the fastest growing fields in the sciences. But AI is more than just engineering and the sciences, as it…

Anyone hoping to get her arms around what artificial intelligence will mean for the world in the twenty-first century must engage with questions and perspectives from across engineering, psychology, economics, sociology, and philosophy.
And with that, Forbes gives to us thought-provoking quotes about artificial intelligence. See them all over at the site. But for now, here’s one from Marvin Minsky:
“The question is not whether intelligent machines can have any emotions, but whether machines can be intelligent without any emotions.”
