What More Could Alan Turing Have Accomplished?

What More Could Alan Turing Have Accomplished?

Many of you have probably heard the name of Alan Turing, but most of those probably don’t appreciate the extent of his contributions. To say that he invented the modern world is an overstatement, but he did dream up the computers we see around us today, and helped win World War II in the process. But the story of Alan Turing is as much about exclusion and defeat as it is of genius.

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
