In this course
Raj Reddy appears as a contributor to the foundational *Speech Understanding Systems* report (1973), a landmark study that shaped early AI approaches to natural language processing and human-computer interaction. His involvement in this DARPA-funded effort connects the course to the genealogy of speech recognition and embodied AI systems that preceded modern deep learning. The reading situates Reddy's work within the broader mid-century project of automating human communication, a key precursor to contemporary questions about machine understanding and the sociotechnical infrastructure of AI.
