Pictured is the router which sent the 1st internet connection from NYC to Tokyo. These were sold out of a basement office of a home in Rahway NJ. It's signed by everyone who worked for Cisco Systems in 1989. It was given to my dad when he retired in 1999 for his work in establishing the internet.Submitted by TriggerTough t3_10kdpgl in newjersey

You're also forgetting neural networks, which power alot of AI today. They were invented by yann lecun at bell labs, his manager was Rich Howard, who was involved with WINLAB at Rutgers.
Then there's also Thomas Edison and all the advancements his company made.

I worked with Yann in Bell Labs, back in the day. He may have invented convolutional neural networks -- he's cited as a 'founding father' of them. Neural networks in general pre-date him a bit.
Edit: Don't get me wrong. Yann's work in that field was huge and he's a big deal at Meta now.

Yup thanks for correcting me.
Also that's pretty cool you used to work with him.
