artificial intelligence was inserted. The operating system was
implemented in Lisp, the development environment was likewise Lisp

My disclaimer: I have no connection whatsoever with this.
PS. The word "symbolics" seems to have a non-Lispm meaning today
something along the lines of "with symbols", hence emblazoned
T-shirts and Soviet regalia, even WW2 German badges.
or
