Comparing 1973 to 2023 is like comparing a model T Ford to a space-X rocket. Technological advances are coming faster & faster. The phone in my hand has more computing power than the computer that put man on the moon. By a large factor. https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2022/11/08/fast-forward-comparing-1980s-supercomputer-to-modern-smartphone I agree, it isn’t so much a new software development as it is massive storage, incredible processing speed, & ability to put the results into a form the user is requesting. But, there is some logic and machine learning involved. The next decade will be amazing.

[...] FSV "future". Who remembers the "Parry" program from the early 1970s? At SAIL, later renamed to SU-AI. Oh, if you weren't on the ARPAnet circa 1973, you probably never saw Parry. It was the first AI program I knew about. I don't remember which famous computer science guy said this, but there haven't been and will never be any "significant breakthroughs" in AI -- all progress will be slow and incremental. I say that recent apparent advances in AI are more due to faster cheaper computers and storage, and now the Internet, than to any new software tech. /Leonard ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
