The field of AI research was founded at a workshop

The attendees became the leaders of AI research in the 1960s.^[s]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence#cite_note-224>
They and their students produced programs that the press described as
"astonishing":^[t]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence#cite_note-226>
computers were learning checkers
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draughts> strategies, solving word
problems in algebra, proving logical theorems
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem> and speaking English.^[u]

By the middle of the 1960s, research in the U.S. was heavily funded by
the Department of Defense <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARPA>^[207]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence#cite_note-228>
and laboratories had been established around the world.^[208]

Herbert Simon <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_A._Simon>
predicted, "machines will be capable, within twenty years, of doing any
work a man can do".^[209]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence#cite_note-230>
Marvin Minsky <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Minsky> agreed,
writing, "within a generation ... the problem of creating 'artificial
intelligence' will substantially be solved".^[210]
