## **1. Introduction to AI and Its Evolution**
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved from simple rule-based systems to advanced deep learning models capable of human-like reasoning. The journey includes:
- **1950s-1980s**: Symbolic AI (Expert Systems).
- **1990s-2000s**: Machine Learning (SVM, Random Forest).
- **2010s-Present**: Deep Learning (Neural Networks, Transformers).
- **2020s-Future**: Generative AI (LLMs, Multimodal AI).

Today, AI powers **ChatGPT, self-driving cars, healthcare diagnostics, and financial forecasting**. To harness AI, we need **models, libraries, and frameworks**—let’s explore them in detail.
