Since the development of the Digital Computer in the 1940s, it has been demonstrated that computers can be programmed to carry out very complex tasks—as, for example, discovering proofs for mathematical theorems or playing Chess. Some claim that artificial intelligence is on the verge of becoming a reality in the form of "thinking machines". Still, despite continuing advances in computer processing speed and memory capacity, there are as yet no programs that can match human flexibility over wider domains or in tasks requiring much everyday knowledge. On the other hand, some programs have attained the performance levels of human experts and professionals in performing certain specific tasks, so that artificial intelligence in this limited sense is found in applications as diverse as medical diagnosis, computer search engines and voice or handwriting recognition.

Currently, the only research appearing to investigate the phenomenon consists of a small number of case studies and experience reports that promote the success of XP in development environments. The field of XP/Agile has seen tremendous growth since the early 2000s, and many people have begun using the practices in their organizations. However, very little research into XP/AM has been conducted. As such, there are few case studies to assist in understanding the practices. This article reviews existing research related to XP/Agile, recommending new areas that could benefit from further study. Since nearly all empirical XP research is on pairs programming, a closer look into other core practices would be beneficial. It might also be possible to group related concepts together for study purposes. Finally, much has been said about how XP can simply be repackaged or carried over from previous practice ideas which need further investigation.

It has been observed that it was one of the oldest science on earth, even there are the myths of Mechanical men in Ancient Greek and Egyptian Myths. Now AI has evolved to be much more advanced and a lot of time is spent on research for making AI work on a high level. AI is not just about programs and computers but it’s a complex science that involves many different disciplines like computer science, math, statistics etc.

In fact, there's already some solid evidence that creative industries such as music, advertising and even film are being transformed by AI—and not just in terms of how we interact with them but also in how they are derived from our interaction with them.
