It was made in a cave with a box of scraps

Prototyping and proof-of-concept.

was attached an amd 1mhz processor.

I don't get how this differs from me just putting pieces of metal together on some non-conduction material on a board and calling it an integrated circuit.

Cause it was a proof of concept.

Your circuit needs semiconductors (transistors and diodes) to do some useful function like a logic gate. An integrated circuit is where all the transistors are build together on the same silicone wafer instead of separate components soldered together on a breadboard.

Because the first of anything is usually pretty mediocre compared to refined consumer products.

Why do you think?

Fixed.
And not just transistors or even active components.
Passive components, like capacitors and resistors, as well as gyrators to simulate inductances.
