Where did 2023 come from?

The Heuristic Compiler, dating back to the early 1960s, is generally considered the first instance of AI programming.

Maybe you mistakenly confused AI with a particular technology, like LLMs? But even then we had LLM-based code completion tools in 2020.

Is 2023 when you became old enough to start remembering things?
