I did a lecture once which included a 5 minute whirlwind tour of neural net history.

I included a remark about how time travellers would find Rosenblatt a better target than Miles Dyson.

I was never quite sure on how close, or over, the line that was on appropriateness. It was definitely thought provoking.
