Robots and Red Tape

The History of AI: From Turing to LLMs with Sunil Prasad


Listen Later

Why do we even need AI — and why now?

Host Nick Schutt sits down with Sunil Prasad, Leidos Principal Solutions Architect and Georgia Tech-trained data scientist, for a sweeping journey through AI’s 100-year history — from 1920s conceptual foundations to today’s agentic AI — and a candid debate on whether machines will ever climb to the top of the food chain.

Key topics:

The 5 phases of AI evolution (1920s–2025)

From perceptrons to LLMs to agentic workflows

Why AI is outsourcing human cognition for the first time since the Industrial Revolution

Where AI shines today (predictive analytics, autonomous systems)

Where it shouldn’t go (parenting, therapy, lethal decisions)

If you’re wondering whether AI is just hype or the next industrial leap, this episode is for you.
