In 1947, the world’s most powerful computer ENIAC was basically... broken.
Out of every 100 hours, only 5 were spent doing real work. The rest? Setup, debugging, fixing wires. And then came a Hungarian mathematician named John von Neumann.
Not an engineer. Not a coder. But a visionary.
He looked at ENIAC’s chaotic design and said: “What if we build a computer that can reprogram itself?”
