🧠 Fun Fact Friday: The first AI chatbot wasn’t ChatGPT, it was ELIZA in 1966. Using simple scripts, it mimicked a therapist so convincingly that people thought it understood them. Wild how far we’ve come. #FunFactFriday #AI #TechHistory
Header: FUN FACT FRIDAY Main text: The first Artificial Intelligence chatbot ever was named ELIZA. Released in 1966 by Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT, it’s a natural language processing program that uses different “scripts” that govern how it interacts. The “DOCTOR” script is the most famous, and it simulates a psychotherapist. It is also notable that it’s one of the first programs ever capable of attempting the Turing test.

☎️ Fun Fact Friday: The first PBX in 1879 was literally a wooden switchboard operated by hand. From 7 extensions to today’s fully unified cloud systems, business communications have come a long way. #FunFactFriday #PBX #BellSystem
Header: FUN FACT FRIDAY Main text: Not long after the invention of the telephone itself was the first “Private Branch Exchange” or PBX installed: in 1879, at the Old Soldier’s Home in Dayton, Ohio. This rudimentary phone system let them have their central telephone line connected to seven internal extensions via a switchboard. AT&T began offering standardized PBXs like this in 1902, and introduced automated PBXs in the 1960s, removing the switchboard. Caption below main text: This switchboard is from a Private Manual Branch Exchange system, and an operator would use it to connect extensions to incoming and outgoing lines. Bottom right corner: CommPath logo Image content: A vintage wooden manual telephone switchboard with rows of jacks, cords, switches, and indicator lights.

💾 In 1965, DEC launched the PDP-8, the first minicomputer that brought computing to small businesses and classrooms. It cost $18,500 (about $185k today) and was the size of a fridge, but it changed everything. #FunFactFriday #TechHistory #CommPath
Text at top in white on red background: FUN FACT FRIDAY Main text: The Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) PDP-8 was a hugely successful “minicomputer”, first introduced in 1965. The PDP-8 line combined powerful technology, elegantly simple design, and affordability that meant computers were available for the first time for smaller businesses and classrooms. The first PDP-8 model, called a “Straight-8”, had a starting price of $18,500 (or roughly $185,000 today). Smaller text below: The first PDP-8 was about the size of a small refrigerator, and you could see the “flip chip” cards that held all the circuitry through the plexiglass panels.

Before Zoom or FaceTime, there was the 𝗔𝗧&𝗧 𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲 (1969). $160/month for a black-and-white video call that worked, but only just. 😅 Basically the “vintage filter” version of modern conferencing. #FunFactFriday #RetroTech #TechHistory
The image features a red banner at the top with bold white text reading “FUN FACT FRIDAY.” Below the banner, the text reads: The AT&T Picturephone (Model II) brought video conferencing to the masses... in 1969! AT&T deployed picturephones first in Pittsburgh, then Chicago, and then other cities on the east coast. A picturephone cost $160/month in 1970 (nearly $1000 today). The unit had a small black-and-white CRT display and a handsfree speakerphone. While revolutionary, the picturephone never achieved wide success.
