1Ideas came before machines
Turing's question dates from 1950; chatbots came 70 years later.
2Overpromise, then winter
When results lag behind promises, funding gets cut.
3Check a chatbot's dates
A model predicts the next token, so years can slip. Always check a source.

Years and numbers come from the sources checked for the series scripts. The AI winter is “around” because sources differ by a few years. The chatbot timeline in round 2 was written by the channel as an illustration; no real AI is called. Machine and organisation names are only used to tell the history. Your answers stay on your device.
