1 day ago · Alan Mathison Turing OBE FRS (/ ˈ tj ʊər ɪ ŋ /; 23 June 1912 – 7 June 1954) was an English mathematician, computer scientist, logician, cryptanalyst, philosopher and theoretical biologist.
4 days ago · The pioneering computer scientist Alan Turing conceived of these hypothetical devices in 1936 as a way to mathematically model the process of computation. Turing machines perform computations by reading and writing 0s and 1s on an infinite tape divided into square cells, using a “head” that operates on one cell at a time.
2 days ago · Do you know where the idea of intelligent machines started? Let's meet the godfather of AI, Alan Turing! The Groundbreaking Paper In 1950, a brilliant mathematician and computer scientist, Alan Turing wrote a groundbreaking paper called "Computing Machinery and Intelligence.
2 days ago · Artificial intelligence (AI), the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. The term is frequently applied to the project of developing systems with the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or learn from past experiences.
3 days ago · But Turing was not always a legend. The first Turing award was awarded to Alan Perlis in 1966. Turing's work during World War II remained classified until the 1970s and wasn't widely known until the 80's. Alan Turing's homosexuality would have granted him no favors in the mid-60s.
1 day ago · The British bombe was an electromechanical device designed by Alan Turing soon after he arrived at Bletchley Park in September 1939. Harold "Doc" Keen of the British Tabulating Machine Company (BTM) in Letchworth (35 kilometres (22 mi) from Bletchley) was the engineer who turned Turing's ideas into a working machine—under the codename CANTAB.
1 day ago · Northeastern computer scientist and new Turing fellow looks to ‘rethink’ how we teach programming in the age of AI. Alexandros Koliousis has been made a fellow at The Alan Turing Institute in recognition of his contribution to the education of computer and data science. Alexandros Koliousis says he wants to use the fellowship to help people ...
