Alan Turing was a pioneering computer scientist who made fundamental contributions to artificial intelligence and the field of computer science. He defined the concept of an algorithm and developed the Turing machine, laying the foundations for the digital computer. During World War II, Turing worked at Britain's codebreaking center and cracked the German Enigma cipher, helping the Allies win the war. However, as a gay man in 1950s Britain, Turing was prosecuted for his homosexuality and chemically castrated, which led to his tragic death two years later at the young age of 41. Though he faced great adversity, Turing's revolutionary ideas transformed technology and shaped the modern world.

3. Outline
• Lived in a homophobic society.
• Thanks to him British people were saved in the war between England and Germany.
• He formalized the concepts of algorithm and computation using the Turing machine.
• Other contributions to science were in the fields of biology and artificial intelligence.
• His discoveries made it possible for us to live in a technological world that grows every
day.

5. ALAN MATHISON TURING
• Alan Turing was born in London, on 23rd June 1912.
• He lived and died in Cheshire, on 7th June 1954.
• He was a mathematician, logician, computer scientist, and philosopher.

6. Christopher Morcom
• Christopher Morcom was his first love.
• He was his inspiration, but he died very young.

7. Consequences:
Atheism New ideas

8. Turing Defined Algorithms.

13. Homophobic Society
• British system condemned him because he was homosexual.
• Gave two options: One was prison and second was chemical castration.
• Chose econd option.

14. Alan’s end
• Alan Turing died because he ate a
poisoned apple.
• Sixty years later, his honor was
restored.
• Steve Jobs put in his logo an apple
bite that represents the way that
Turing died.

15. Aalways continued to front because he believed in his ideas.
