A professor of computer science explains why the original limitations of Turing Machines still govern the age of advanced AI like ChatGPT.

Alan Turing was not a well known figure during his lifetime. But today he is famous for being an eccentric yet passionate ...

Princeton graduate alumnus Avi Wigderson has won the 2023 A.M. Turing Award from the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), recognizing his profound contributions to the mathematical underpinnings ...

Computer scientist wins Turing Award for seminal work on randomness Avi Wigderson helped prove that randomness is not required for efficient computation.

After his time at King’s College, he invented the Turing machine, which was an abstract computer capable of implementing computing algorithms based on certain mathematical rules. He then moved to ...

In 1936, English mathematician Alan Turing introduced the idea of a computer that could rewrite its own instructions, making it endlessly programmable.

The quest to find the longest-running simple computer program has identified a new champion. It’s physically impossible to ...

But their research has directly sought to answer Turing's 1947 call for a machine that “can learn from experience” — which Sutton describes as “arguably the essential idea of reinforcement ...

Jack Dongarra's software unlocked new abilities in multimillion-dollar machines that sprawl across data centers the size of tennis courts.
