Researchers working in machine learning lacked sufficient computing power and data to test their ideas. As a result, machine learning was often overlooked in favor of expert systems and more logical approaches to artificial intelligence.

Expert systems and logic-based approaches generally centered around the idea that it should be possible to “create” intelligence from a finite set of rules and logical primitives. Programming languages like Prolog stemmed from this belief. Today, with an abundance of computing power and data, machine ...
