Older than one might think. I believe late 70s were the first attempts at learning algorithms, but then the processing power was a great limiter to progress.
Keep in mind, I'm an amateur on the subject, have recreated some papers on the subject and little more.
Don't take it like shitting on your point, but for something as you mention is something that would need a leap in tech, although with current technology and spycraft a similar effect is plausible.
Maybe. Certainly more advanced. I think certain people through recorded history have had some limited access to it. "Read Only" hacks if you will for the most part.

I'm thinking even before 1970's. Like 3,000 BC or so. The issue has been accessibility.
In that case we would be talking a different type of tech altogether.
