Machine Learning: How Did We Get Here?

The History of Machine Learning with Tom Mitchell

1 tim 8 min23 februari 2026

Tom Mitchell, Founders University Professor at Carnegie Mellon University kicks off the podcast with this recording of his February 2026 seminar talk on “The History of Machine Learning.”

He takes us from the writings of early philosophers about whether it is even possible to form correct general laws given only specific examples, to today’s machine learning algorithms that underlie a trillion dollar AI economy. Along the way we see the thoughts and recollections of many of the pioneers in the field, in the form of excerpts from upcoming podcast episodes featuring full interviews with each.

Tom discusses the wonderful creativity and diversity of approaches explored during the 1980s, the integration of statistics and probability into the field in the 1990s and early 2000s, and the amazing progress over the past decade that has brought us today’s AI systems.  He reflects in the end on what we should learn from this history.

Recorded at Carnegie Mellon University.
