I think this is incorrect, this isn't the first trained multi-layer neural network.

Minsky & Rosenblatt's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptrons_(book) covers multi-layer neural nets.

Rosenblatt's electronic implementation, the Mark I https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/236965.pdf

Minsky's electronic implementation, SNAC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_neural_analog_reinf...

I mentioned a “deep” multi-layer neural net, which implies more than just 2-3 layers. As far as I’m aware, this is the first eight-layer trained network mentioned in any publication. http://people.idsia.ch/~juergen/deep-learning-conspiracy.htm...

Ah, I wasn’t aware of that distinction.
