The $15,000 A.I. From 1983:
Why Do We Put Holes In Our Head?:

Edward Youmans founded The Popular Science Monthly in 1872, and the first issue contained articles on “Science and Immortality and “The Causes of Dyspepsia.”

He had no way to know that the next 152 years of his publication would cover general relativity and the atom bomb.

He couldn’t have predicted the discovery of DNA or debates over the science and ethics of cloning.

What started as a niche monthly journal for a few hundred scientifically-inclined minds is now a YouTube channel that can reach millions, globally, instantly… and all for free.

We’ve been overthinking since 1872 — and we want you to join us.

  The lay offs suck, but were unfortunately inevitable. At least the name will be in good hands for now.

  Thanks, Conrad — it won’t be long, you’ll get some great videos soon. And actually soon, not video game developer “soon.”

Will there be any unpopular sciences shown off on the channel?

  The most popular sciences tend to be unpopular first, until they’re popular, and then they get unpopular again. So, yes!
