With the mid-'60s System 360/30 doing FFTs required writing partial products to tape, rewinding, and taking another pass. In the '80s neural networks fizzled more from lack of computing power than the concept. It was like early aircraft experiments waiting for a lightweight engine. Now we have generative AI that is an endless sink of power.
