                      Another small update from the Pentium 1 project! xD

                      Remember how I had to remove the SoundBlaster because the USB 2.0 card and the SoundBlaster refused to coexist?

                      Well... I tried another PCI slot combination.

                      The USB 2.0 card stayed exactly where it was. I simply moved the SoundBlaster into the last free PCI slot, directly above the USB card.

                      And now both cards work perfectly in parallel :O

                      The interesting part is that the PCI slot the SoundBlaster was in before shares its space with an ISA slot. The new slot doesn't.

                      Could that have been the problem? Maybe the shared ISA/PCI slot caused some kind of resource or IRQ routing weirdness.

                      And why? No idea... I am not even going to question it xD

                      The Pentium 1 now has both USB 2.0 and sound working at the same time, without any boot errors.

                      Plug and Pray continues...

                      I even took a photo of the slot layout. If anyone knows exactly what was going on here, I definitely wouldn't be offended if you drop your explanation or theory in the comments xD

Sad that we had to go here, but aside from conference sprints we weren't really getting outside contribution anyway (which is also sad, but that's been the case a lot longer than AI has been around).

                            An AI from NASA... running on a Pentium 1 :O

                            After getting ELIZA running on the Pentium 1, I decided to take another step through the history of AI.

                            Almost 20 years after ELIZA, in 1985, NASA's Johnson Space Center started developing CLIPS (C Language Integrated Production System), a rule-based expert system for building AI applications.

                            So this time, we're moving from early natural-language AI to expert systems.

                            I built CLIPS in a NetBSD 11.0 i386 build VM and then moved the resulting binary to the real Pentium 1.

                            First, I ran a small rule-based example directly on the Pentium 1, just to make sure everything worked on the actual hardware.

                            For the more complex experiment, I connected to the Pentium 1 from my Linux PC via SSH. The CLIPS process was still running on the Pentium 1, with the Linux machine only providing the terminal.

                            Unlike ELIZA, which mainly uses pattern matching and predefined responses, CLIPS represents knowledge as facts and rules and uses an inference engine to derive new information.

                            For the more complex example, I used Acetobacterium woodii. Starting with a few basic facts, CLIPS inferred:

                            facts → acetogen → Wood-Ljungdahl pathway → autotrophic growth

                            I also tested multiple rules being active at the same time. CLIPS puts these activations on its agenda and determines which rule fires next.

                            So this isn't ChatGPT running on a Pentium 1. It's another piece of AI history: symbolic AI and expert systems, running on hardware from the 1990s.

                                          Funding for was never really a problem - turns out there was plenty money available for all these years. The money raised so far by shows that.

                                          The second is that the illusion that the tech industry ever sat on the right side of history when clearly it's just allowed Nazis to hide in plain sight this entire time.
