John McCarthy on March 5th, 2008 at ETech 2008.
John McCarthy was the inventor of the Lisp language and coined the term “Artificial Intelligence” in the 1950’s. In the sixties, his thoughts on treating time-shared computers as a utility predicted the current use of cloud computing. He is another one of those people that left a huge mark on the world as we know it. Thank you John.
