While I admit that I don’t precisely know where the bowels of MIT were, I’m pretty sure the AI Lab wasn’t in them.
Presumably that would be the steam tunnels, which (if memory of lore serves) many AI hackers of yore spent time exploring.
Edited to add:
Hack, sense 9, in the Jargon File makes oblique reference.
Well, sure, but you might as well say that AI came from the cafeterias of MIT, where many AI hackers spent time eating.
A case could certainly be made.
