Another dusty gem’s emerged from the vintage gold mine which is AT&T’s Tech Channel archive, and this one’s packed stuffed with useful information and a few classic Jetsons-style animation. The Thinking Machines pits man against computer to give an explanation for how the things reason, and it does so with a soundtrack that’s straight out of, well, 1968. Unsurprisingly, the film’s populated by giant, button-laden switchboards, early special effects, ladies sporting beehives, and gents rocking unfortunate facial hair, but when that doesn’t do it for you, it also offers genuine pearls like this: “Better of all, they never lose interest. Like other machines, they could do the identical monotonous chores all day long without complaining.” Someone should tell that to the disgruntled Roomba residing in our hall closet. Check up on the complete video in all its dated glory after the break.
