Compute-Structure AI History

A project that reads AI history through the hardware that made it possible: how did available devices, memory, interconnects, data pipelines, and inference setups make some methods practical, widely adopted, or obsolete?

132 research papers from 1986 to 2026 are organized into 10 compute regimes — each defined by device constraints, memory limits, and interconnect capabilities. The rise and fall of methods, seen from the metal up.
