AI may have seemed like an overnight success after ChatGPT’s release, but its history is a testament to the challenges and hardships that anyone must endure before reaping the fruits of their labour. In the seventh and final episode of this mini-series, we travel through 70 years of AI history.
I hope the ending makes you smile (because I spent a whole hour just thinking about how to wrap it up 😅).

While I covered the history of AI at a high level, I wrote a more detailed 3-part series about it so you're aware of more specific events that led to its failures and successes. You can read them for free on my website:
One more thing… THANK YOU 🙏
Working on these 7 videos over the past few weeks has been incredibly energizing and fun. My wrists are tired but my heart is full. I’m grateful and surprised by the level of engagement, positive comments, and encouraging (anonymous) feedback you’ve been sending me. Year 2049 officially hit 3,000 subscribers yesterday!!!!!!!!!
I know I flooded your inbox for the past 7 days and I hope this was worth your time. My challenge in this series was finding the right level of depth for each topic to make you feel informed without overwhelming you with technical details. If there’s any topic you’d like a deeper dive in, reply to this email or share your thoughts in the anonymous feedback form 👇
I’ll be resting my eyes and stretching my wrists for the next week, but I’ll share some announcements about upcoming projects I’m working on for Year 2049.
Much love,
– Fawzi
