早上好！
首先，ABE排除。我和你一样的，现在我们关注的是C和D。
第一，can和could是不仅仅是本身意思的区别，还有词态的区别，整句话是在late 1950’s的背景下发生的，所以这点maybe确定后面的应该用过去时。
第二，句子后面的assumption我发现了，说明是过去late 1950’s那个时候的人工智能建立的assumption是什么什么的，从这点来说，也许可能需要虚拟语气，但是选项中好像没有，could可能凑合点吧
第三，as和like是老生常谈了
as在作为介词的时候，意思是作为什么什么的身份，等同于in the capacity of；在作为连接词的时候，是就像什么什么的时候，或者还有其他含义：当什么什么的时候。通常情况下，GMAT更多考到的as是作为连接词的考点，后面通常是跟着有动词或者情态的句子成分。like是介词，后面只能跟着名词或者动名词或者代词，意思是就像什么什么（对不起，我忘记了补充来源：请看OG12 page652里面的Diction中的As/like用法解释）
如果我选择你的C选项，as后面肯定缺少了什么东西，我把它补全了：
Artificial intelligence emerged during the late 1950’s as an academicdiscipline based on the assumption that computers can be programmed to think as people can be programmed to think.省略的地方我补出来了，assumption后面的句子逻辑通顺么？因为people不能被programmed to think的吧，你说呢？
把D选项补全了：
Artificial intelligence emerged during the late 1950’s as an academicdiscipline based on the assumption that computers could be programmed to think like people（后面不能补全的）。assumption后面句子说：计算机也许可能被编程设计成像人类一样的思考。你有没有发现，这时候的like，侧重于think？没有感觉侧重于比较了。
我再解释清楚点：computers think like people是这个assumption的核心。没有了比较的感觉了。

有很细微的差异的感觉，C选项和D选项的subtle差异就在这里了。希望我的解释你能满意~
