This is a report on the panel "Artificial Intelligence: Finally in the Mainstream?" which was held during the ACM Computer Science Conference in Nashville, TN on March 1, 1995. The panel was held on the same day as the ACM Turing Award ceremony, which this year was given to the two AI pioneers, Edward Feigenbaum and Raj Reddy; as pointed out by several of the conference attendants, the fact that ACM selected these two specific individuals as recipients of the most prestigious award in Computer Science, suggests that the Computer Science mainstream, has given its answer to the panel's theme question. Coincidentally, the Turing Award lectures were delivered a few hours before the panel and thus set the stage and mood for the panel statements and discussion that followed. The panel consisted of Robert Aiken, Cris Koutsougeras, Toshinori Munakata and Marco Valtorta, and was moderated by Bill Manaris.
