  • How AI Happened — Act 1
    Apr 18 2026
    Turing's 1950 paper was far stranger than the 'Turing Test' it's remembered for — he seriously entertained ESP, proposed building child-minds instead of programming adult ones, and set a prediction for the year 2000 that roughly came true in the most disputed way possible. His death in 1954 left a conceptual vacuum, and the field that emerged in his absence lurched between grand promises and supposed 'winters' that were partly mythological — US AI society membership actually tripled during the first one.

    Geoffrey Hinton left the United States in 1987 because military money in AI disturbed him — a decision that accidentally made Toronto the capital of deep learning's revival. Twenty-five years later, his student Alex Krizhevsky trained AlexNet on two consumer gaming GPUs and beat the field by a margin so large it was initially assumed to be an error: 10.9 percentage points in a competition where progress was measured in fractions. This single result ended one paradigm and started another, and it happened in a bedroom, not a lab.
