Yeah, "You came of age professionally during the development of artificial intelligence" in the opening question told me right off the bat that something was off with the interviewer. Some version of AI research has been around nearly as long as computers themselves, but the late 60s weren't exactly a focal point like, say, the 80s were. Plus, her primary contribution to computer science has little to do with AI directly. It felt like misunderstanding and/or a wide reach for a hot topic.
