Hey man thank u so much for featuring my clip in this video!! Your channel is fantastic!!! It's about time Mr. Zuse gets the recognition he deserves. He was truly a genius!! I've made the main part of the Z1 (the ALU and datapath) in minecraft because this computer is very special to me. It's just so fascinating. BTW, the video is not actually mine, I got it from this interview with professor Raul Rojas, a computer scientist who met Zuse in person and has spent years studying his machines. I can't find the original clip now, but definitely check out his other work he's a legend. You're the GOAT. And Zuse was too. Btw, the Z1 in the museum (made in 1989 cuz the original one was destroyed during a bombing, which is also unrealiable) is getting an inspection/repair this year!! Thank u sir. Big up!!

More like Steve Wozniak then Jobs. Wozniak created the Apple 1 and 2. Steve Jobs only really was able to create when he had a talented team around him (though he knew how to manage and drive them to achieve great things). Different skills but Wozniak's capabilities more closely align with Zuse.

I reside somewhere in Africa where people often don't think highly of computers because of the vices associated with them.

As a Computer Scientist in Africa, this is the 3rd time I have come across the saying that Zeus did or designed the 1st computer.

Apart from Zeus, we have some other Technocrats in ancient European countries who are frontiers in inventing remarkable stuff but they were not recognized for it because only a few people knew about them, some of what we live by today was based on their inputs.

Credit must be given to whom it should be given. Germany is a great country when it comes to innovation but it took them so long to embrace it. The US controlled the world because of its insatiable thirst for tech.

I think what happened to Zeus was as a result of the following: living in a country that did not deserve him then and, living in a country without a vision to consider the power and the future impact of digital technology.

The world's first fully functional computer was the Z3, built by German engineer Konrad Zuse in 1941. It was programmable, automatic, and actually worked reliably - 5 years before the famous ENIAC. The Z3 is often overlooked because it was built in wartime Germany and destroyed in bombing, but historians now recognize it as the first true working computer.

The added "AI Generated" clips were impressive... I can already see how AI technology is going to practically rewrite the rule book on web media in the not-too-distant future.

I wonder what he wouldve achieved with proper funding and a great team.

Thank you for bringing this often ignored part of history to more peoples attention

Really good video! I'm working with the Z1 and can confirm that the most important topics were mentioned!
Keep up!

Just for the records: Enigma is not a computer at all but just a bunch of wires and wheels to do character substitutions for encrypting text used by the Germans in WW2.

I was waiting for your video for a long time.
Finally ❤❤
Keep it up ❤

Great video, I think history is turning towards Zeus being the original inventor of the digital computer. It must be noted at the time analogue 'computers' were also in use and had been for decades. It was tough for digital computers to compete with these devices until a fuller understanding of their flexibility was understood. Early digital computers however were not that flexible either, so it took until the Manchester 'Baby' in 1948 for a flexible, programmable computer with storage and inputs and outputs to be created and understood as the first complete digital computer in the world.

As mentioned in the video, this was not an electronic computer. It was electro-mechanical. ENIAC was electronic, as was Colossus, which the British used for code breaking. Even before ENIAC, punch card systems were approaching computers. Also, he didn't invent printers. They were used by telecommunications companies and later adapted to computers. I believe the first would have been around 1922.
BTW, why is Enigma in the title? It has nothing to do with this. Enigma was a code breaking system for the German codes and was originally developed in Poland, before being taken over by the British at the beginning of WW2.

I think the title should be "Why ENIAC..." Not "Why

It's so terrifying to see media can provide false information as a true. And people believe that as a fact. 😢

[haukechristiansen]

Many thanks for this amazing Video!
I, myself, had the chance to sot on a real Z32 at Arithmeum Bonn, the Museum for calculating Machines. It was an honor!

[SamRichardson]

There are UNIVAC and BINAC Which have Digital Monitor. Which suggests me that Computers must have been in Use before these probably .

[Stoney_Eagle]

Altho I can clearly tell the AI generated images apart I appreciate it being clearly stated 👍
Nice story.

"...but who knows, some day a machine like this may checkup on your income tax" - oh, yeah, this came sooner than later

i guess in a way it's like the frank whittle story, he was the father of the jet engine.. no one listened to him in his own country of the game changing potential.. except the germans did, and the got their hands on his research and beat everyone with jet engines in WW2 ..
