The philosophical concept of a 'blank slate' or 'tabula rasa', derived from the Latin for 'scraped tablet', was popularized by John Locke in his 1689 work 'An Essay Concerning Human Understanding', arguing that the human mind starts empty and is shaped by experience—this idea has profoundly influenced psychology, education, and even artificial intelligence development.
