Alan Turing
Alan Turing is the foundational figure of computer science and artificial intelligence. He conceptualized the Turing Machine (1936), an abstract model of computation that defined the limits of what can be algorithmically computed, formalizing the concepts of algorithms and programs. During WWII, his crucial work at Bletchley Park in breaking the German Enigma codes is estimated to have shortened t...
