1 Jan 1951 Jahr - UNIVAC predicts the voting outcome

Beschreibung:

1. AI gains its first major wave of worry regarding the mechanical takeover of Earth.

2. By using statistics and computing power, UNIVAC displayed how computers could be used to predict outcomes of events (despite not really catching on with the public).

3. Even though it was made of thousands of vacuum tubes and weighed well over 20,000 lbs, it still surpassed the average human's ability to predict the results with that much accuracy.
