Over the last couple of decades, we have witnessed a skyrocketing evolution of AI. At first, machines became better than us at chess and boardgames. Then, they set up new communication channels or techniques. Both remarkable and scary, this transformation inevitably makes us wonder: what will the future bring?
During the last decade, Artificial Intelligence doesn’t mean just algorithms, calculations and probabilities. The concept of AI and its related technologies are now much more complex than what Deep Blue was.
After man made the machines, he wanted to endow them with a sort of intelligence. Not like his own, but, anyway, to make them smart. As we find ourselves in the middle of technological progress, how does it look so far? We’ll try to find out by making a retrospection, then an introspection and eventually talk a bit about the future.

It’s easy to assume that the decisions produced by an algorithm would be neutral. By letting an uninvested and objective machine make a decision on which applicant to hire, or who is guilty in a criminal trial, it feels as though there should be a more accurate outcome than by allowing a biased and subjective human to decide. It seems, however, that this is not the case: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is inheriting the biases of its human creators.
