Allen Newell, J. Clifford Shaw, and Herb Simon
were also writing programs in the 1950s
that were ahead of their time in vision but limited
by the tools. Their LT program was another
early tour-de-force, startling the world with a
computer that could invent proofs of logic theorems—which
unquestionably requires creativity
as well as intelligence. It was demonstrated
at the 1956 Dartmouth conference on artificial
intelligence, the meeting that gave AI its name.
