A lecture about the work of Alan Turing, often dubbed the father of modern computing and the subject of the film The Imitation Game, will be given at Victoria University of Wellington next week.

In a recent series of lectures at the Turing Institute, the UK’s hub for data science and artificial intelligence research, experts gathered to discuss the future of generative AI. This technology, ...

Everything about this Turing machine is absolutely brilliant. A Turing machine uses a strip of material to record, calculate, and change data. [Mike Davey] built this one using servo motors, a ...

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume. Robyn Williams: Alan Turing. What do you know about Alan Turing, who was born 100 years ago this month?

"The Imitation Game" helped make World War II code breaker Alan Turing a household name. But for all the attention he has gotten for breaking Nazi Germany's Enigma code, the British mathematician ...

One of the things we love best about the articles we publish on Hackaday is the dynamic that can develop between the hacker and the readers. At its best, the comment section of an article can be a ...

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 ...

One hundred and fifty years of mathematics will be proved wrong if a new computer program stops running. Thankfully, it’s unlikely to happen, but the code behind it is testing the limits of the ...

A proof made public today illustrates that Stephen Wolfram's 2,3 Turing machine number 596440 is a universal Turing machine, and it has netted a University of Birmingham undergraduate $25,000. In 1936 ...

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 ...
