Not the Speak & Spell. You leave that one alone.
They can take my Speak and Spell when they pry it from my cold, dead h. a. n. d.
Exactly. ET wouldn’t have got home without one.
My first encounter with AI.
What did you play this on? It looks like Atari.
Looks like the chess game we had on our old “ibm compatible”
That screenshot is specifically from the Atari 2600. You can tell because sprites that are next to each other are offset by one vertical pixel, which was a common effect used to help with hardware limitations.
IIRC, the 2600 didn’t have a graphics processor. So, you had to “chase the ray” with CPU instructions, which made for some interesting limitations.
It has the TIA, which is as close to a picture processor (and also audio synthesizer) as you can get, but due to the 128 bytes of RAM, there was not enough RAM to form a framebuffer, hence the need to race the beam.
And that 2600 is still smarter than mechahitler.
Teddy Ruxpin did nothing wrong.
I see you never played a NIN tape in one.
Now THAT I gotta see 😂
Where are the furbies
Right here
It would have cost you nothing to not post this.
Cleary they value more than the mere material currency of this realm.
Without the Farmer says See N Say we’d never have this great Soundgarden intro.
If you time travel and take out the ENIAC, you likely deprive the US of working nuclear weapons during WW2.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC
ENIAC was designed by John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert to calculate artillery firing tables for the United States Army’s Ballistic Research Laboratory (which later became a part of the Army Research Laboratory).[7][8] However, its first program was a study of the feasibility of the thermonuclear weapon.[9][10]
… choose wisely.
Can you predict what would have happened, then?
…are you sure?
My first experience with creepy tech was those talking furby toys.
Teddy Ruxpin just moves the mouth in response to sound. There’s no AI going on there (at least in the original ones).

You just have to erase the first letter of “emeth”.
“John Conner?”
Call me t-1000 then
No! Not my Teddy Ruxpin! 😭
