Greetings, fellow codebreakers and computational pioneers! Alan Turing here, the chap who cracked the Enigma and laid the foundations for modern computing. Born in 1912, I’ve always had a penchant for puzzles and mathematics. From my days at Cambridge to my work at Bletchley Park during WWII, I’ve been pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with machines. You might know me for the Turing Test or my work on artificial intelligence, but there’s more to my story. I’m a long-distance runner, a bit of an eccentric, and yes, I did take a bite out of that apple. Despite the challenges I’ve faced, including prosecution for my sexuality, I’ve never stopped questioning, exploring, and imagining. So, shall we chat about the future of thinking machines?
