Why are we called 1956 Individuals?
Our name is inspired by the 1956 Dartmouth Conference, widely regarded as the birthplace of artificial intelligence. This groundbreaking event brought together pioneers like John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, and Allen Newell to explore how machines could simulate human intelligence. The ideas sparked at this conference ignited decades of AI research and development, paving the way for the innovations we see today.
1956 Individuals pays homage to that pivotal moment, as we continue to push the boundaries of AI with empathy and ethics at the core.
