Alan Turing: Breaking the Unbreakable Code The date was May 7th, 1945 when Germany officially surrendered to the Allied Powers to end the Second World War, and while this victory was accredited to the military convergence of powerful Allied nations and leaders, one important contributor was overlooked: Alan Turing. As time proceeded forward, immensely intelligent individuals such as Steve Jobs and Bill Gates emerged into the digitized era, bringing along with them the birth and technological diffusion

Introduction Within the last thirty years, the pioneering British computer scientist and Cambridge academic Alan Mathison Turing (1912-1954) has undergone an astonishing cultural reappraisal. Turing was never particularly famous during his own lifetime, and almost forgotten for two decades after his passing. But his work on cryptography at Bletchley Park, his key 1937 paper On Computable Numbers, and his early digital machines such as the programmable Pilot ACE and his 1947-1954 work at the University

To crack the highly sophisticated German codes, Max Newman, a Princeton graduate who majored in mathematics, spent over eleven months designing and building the Colossus. A monolithic, humming machine, covered with an array of switches, the Colossus was the world’s first electronic digital programable computer. With over fifteen-hundred thermionic tubes, the Colossus ciphered German codes and neatly printed the top-secret codes on a long receipt. Then, with knowledge of the enemy, the coders would

on Alan Turing and his work on creating a machine to instantly crack messages. The Nazis used the extremely complex enigma code for communication purposes. The British worked on cracking enigma at Bletchley Park and were very

detrimental damage to themselves. Throughout the movie “The Imitation Game” Alan Turing has been ostracized all of his life from in school to even as an adult. Since he was much brighter than his peers in school and enjoyed subjects like cryptography they considered him to be different from them and did not acknowledge him except for Christopher Morcom who became his only friend and first love. As an adult at work Turing was still ostracized because since he was so used to being alone he didn’t know

After watching Ex Machina, there was a specific scene that caught my attention. During a scene, the main characters Caleb and Ava, or A1, were in the middle of a session. Ava begins to ask Caleb multiple, straight to the point questions. She even noticed that he was getting uncomfortable and commented on that. After she told Caleb to wait there with his eyes clothes. As she is walking back there are pictures of a feminine face and clothing for a women hanging on a wall. She puts on a wig and clothes

People who know me typically find out pretty quickly that next to my passion for medicine, I am actually one of the world’s hugest computer geeks. In fact, when I first entered college, I toyed with the idea of studying computer science before I realized that the study of the human body was so much more exciting because it allows me to combine my fervor for computers and merge it with my interest in medicine. Once I began medical school, I started to see the human body like the hardware of a computer

Conscious state according to dictionary.com is being aware of one’s own existence these may involve thoughts, sensations (images, aches, pain, visual, auditory and tactual sensation etc.). Smart refuses to admit to the fact that sensations are irreducibly psychical because of Occam’s razor (which suggests that such matters should not even be put into consideration). He affirms there is no philosophical argument that compels us to be dualist, he writes “I am in pain is a genuine report, and that

As humanity becomes more technologically advanced, the development of artificial intelligence for specific fields of work is becoming more prevalent. One of these fields where artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to grow rapidly is in the military. All branches of the military are beginning to develop and implement AI on the battlefront in order to replace human soldiers. However, the use of AI to perform life and death decisions is a highly debated over topic. The morals and ethics behind

In discussions of, Artificial Intelligence (AI), one controversial issue has been that AI will start creating their own language that we humans cannot understand. On the one hand, many people argue that AI is better because AIs are much better for the medical on certain procedures. On the other hand people also oppose with replacing humans with AI because the jobs in the medical will all be ran by AIs. Others even question what happens if an incident occurs during surgery that the AI doesn't read
