Fourrure tachetée des léopards, les rayures qui ornent les zèbres, alignement des pétales de fleurs... Y a-t-il un ordre dans ce caractère apparemment aléatoire de la #nature ?

La fascination du mathématicien Alan #Turing pour les taches du léopard l'a conduit à résoudre cette énigme.

"A collection of rare documents by World War Two codebreaker Alan Turing have been saved for the nation. Last year, a temporary export bar was placed on the wartime project writings to prevent them being taken abroad. A successful campaign was launched to keep the papers on home soil, which were described by the government as some of Turing's most 'inventive, secret, and overlooked work'."

Reinforcement learning, inspired by animal training, is a key method in #AI. It designs intelligent agents to maximize rewards as they interact with their environment. A statistics professor explains: https://buff.ly/Ew1qFiF

#AlanTuring

an interesting connection:

it was #LordByron who proposed the ghost story writing contest that led to #MaryShelley writing "#Frankenstein", and he was the father of another #womensHistoryMonth notable: #AdaLovelace

her story is well known, but less well known is that she predicted #AI

she rejected it

her rejection was not without teeth, because the first non-#scienceFiction champion of AI, #AlanTuring, spent an inordinate amount of time refuting her critique

Dem britischen Mathematiker Alan Turing gelingt 1940 ein großer Coup: Endlich funktioniert die von ihm konzipierte „Bombe“, die den Nazis das Handwerk legen soll – und wird. Allerdings nicht durch ihre Sprengkraft im wörtlichen Sinne.

Dnešní článek je o Alanu Turingovi, jehož odkaz je všude kolem nás. K zakladateli moderní informatiky však bylo přistupováno nelidsky pro jeho sexualitu - tak moc, že spáchal sebevraždu. Hanba na duši lidstva.

"In November 2023, a large cache of his wartime papers—nicknamed the “Bayley papers”—was auctioned in London for almost half a million U.S. dollars. The previously unknown cache contains many sheets in Turing’s own handwriting, telling of his top-secret “Delilah” engineering project from 1943 to 1945. Delilah was Turing’s portable voice-encryption system, named after the biblical deceiver of men."

Alan Turing, the man who made machines think.

The British mathematician, whose fate was both exceptional and tragic, is considered a founding figure for the idea of artificial intelligence. His story, long overlooked, continues to be studied in the light of current developments in computer science.
