Neural networks: Neural networks are computational models inspired by the human brain, designed to recognize patterns and solve complex problems. They consist of layers of interconnected nodes (analogous to neurons) that process input data and learn to perform tasks by adjusting the strength of connections based on feedback. Used extensively in machine learning, they enable applications like image recognition, language processing, and predictive analysis.

Marvin Minsky on Neural Networks - Dictionary of Arguments

Norvig I 16
Neural Networks/Minsky: Two undergraduate students at Harvard, Marvin Minsky and Dean Edmonds, built the first neural network computer in 1950. The SNARC, as it was called, used 3000 vacuum tubes and a surplus automatic pilot mechanism from a B-24 bomber to simulate a network of 40 neurons. Later, at Princeton, Minsky studied universal computation in neural networks.
Norvig I 17
Minsky was later to prove influential theorems showing the limitations of neural network research.
