    James Oliech
    Psychology, computer science, and mathematics provide the foundational disciplines for artificial intelligence. Psychology studies human thinking and behavior which aims to develop machines that can think and reason like humans. Computer science enables direct communication between humans and AI systems through algorithms and computer languages. Key mathematical concepts like logic, computation, and probability allow machines to deduce conclusions and deal with uncertainty.

    DISCIPLINES THAT PROVIDE THE FOUNDATION OF AI

    1. PSYCHOLOGY

    Human psychology has been a major drive in the field of AI. The question, "can machines
    think?" has been the basis in the development in this field. The possibility of adaptive learning
    by the help of the brain neurons has been the foundation of AI. The main aim of the AI is to
    develop a machine that can think on its own and make rational decisions and reason. It is fair to
    conclude that the universal objective of AI is to move towards creating a machine that can
    better imitate the human biological neuron, way of thinking and human psychology in general.

    2. COMPUTER SCIENCE

    Computer science is the study of all aspects of a computer. Artificial intelligence as a whole tries
    to enable computers to emulate human intelligence and try to make decisions on their own.
    Scientists in this field tend to come up with algorithms to try and help machines teach
    themselves human aspects. Computer science therefore is very crucial as it enables a direct
    communication channel between humans and agents through various computer languages.

    3. MATHEMATICS

    Some great topics in mathematics have proved essential in the development of AI. The
    invention of topics such as Logic, the work of mathematicians such as George Boole who
    worked out the Boolean logic which was later improved to first order logic which is now a basic
    representation system in the field of AI. Computation is another stepping stone that developed
    AI, it led to the invention of algorithms which was used to deduce logic. Probability has been
    used in this field to deal with uncertain measures and incomplete theories. This is the basis for
    most uncertain reasoning in AI systems.

    4. LINGUISTICS

    The problem of understanding language requires an understanding of the subject matter and
    context, not just an understanding of the structure of sentences. Therefore through linguistics it was
    possible to put knowledge into a form that a computer could reason with.

    5. PHYLOSOPHY OF THE MIND

    Great minds such as Aristotle generated laws that governed the rational part of the mind. He
    developed an informal system of syllogisms for proper reasoning, which in principle allowed one to
    generate conclusions mechanically, given initial premises. Aristotle argued that actions are justified by a
    logical connection between goals and knowledge of the action’s outcome. This algorithm is seen when it
    was implemented in the GPS systems.
