Fellow AI enthusiasts,

	I am a mechanical engineering tech and have been monitoring
the AI newslist for several months now. Could someone guide me to
some introductory articles on AI, how it came about, and what it is
supposed to accomplish for man? My main area of interest is robotics,
but general info in all fields is welcome.
