This week we’ll venture in the realm of theory for a change, starting with Turing machines. In case some of you don’t know what a Turing machine is, here is the Wikipedia definition: “A theoretical ...
Alan Turing theorized a machine that could do infinite calculations from an infinite amount of data that computes based on a set of rules. It starts with an input, transforms the data and outputs an ...
On June 23, we commemorate the birth of Alan Mathison Turing, a visionary whose profound contributions laid the very groundwork for modern computing and artificial intelligence. Often hailed as the ...
Though as with so many independent inventors the origins of computing can be said to have been arrived at through the work of many people, Alan Turing is certainly one of the foundational figures in ...
A mathematical model of computation. Named after English scientist Alan Turing, a Turing machine is a finite state machine that reads a tape divided into cells. The Turing machine examines the symbol ...
It is the height of the Second World War. A group of codebreakers stands in a dimly lit warehouse 50 miles northwest of London, a giant machine composed of spinning drums and wires looms in front of ...
Ever since, the so-called Turing Test embodied in that paper, Computing Machinery And Intelligence, has served as a yardstick ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Gil Press writes about technology, entrepreneurs and innovation. This week's milestones in the history of technology include Alan ...
The names of Alan Turing and the Enigma encryption machine have grown inextricably linked over time, owing to Turing’s contribution to British decryption efforts during World War II. It’s fitting, ...
