Fun Fact: The first AI was born before the internet!

Long before smart assistants or self-driving cars, the very first AI programs were written in the early 1950s. One of them, created by Christopher Strachey, could actually play checkers — on a computer the size of a room! These early experiments might seem simple now, but they laid the groundwork for all modern AI systems. It’s wild to think that today’s chatbots and image generators evolved from a game of checkers played more than 70 years ago! 👾
