2 | The Foundations of AI: Philosophy, Math, and the Sciences Behind Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence didn’t appear out of nowhere. It was built on ideas from many different fields that tried to answer one big question: how does intelligence work? In this module, we explore the disciplines that laid the groundwork for modern AI. We cover: • Philosophy - Questions about the mind, knowledge, reasoning, and how thought leads to action • Mathematics - Logic, computability, and probability that allow machines to reason and handle uncertainty • Economics - Decision-making models that focus on maximizing utility or payoff • Neuroscience - Understanding how the brain processes information and inspires models of intelligence • Psychology - Studying human cognition and behavior • Computer Engineering - Building the hardware that makes intelligent systems possible • Control Theory - Designing systems that can operate autonomously and adapt to changing environments • Linguistics – Understanding language and communication, which is critical for AI systems that interact with humans Together, these fields shaped the ideas and tools that power modern artificial intelligence.
