Show overview
Stephen Wolfram (Wolfram Alpha) on Alan Turing has published 4 episodes during 2012. Releases follow a near-daily cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 5 min and 7 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 14.3 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. Published by Breitband.
From the publisher
Alan Turing was the founding father of the idea of universal computing which characterizes our modern digital world. This Saturday we celebrate his 100th birthday. "We're only seeing the beginning of the importance of the idea of universal computation, and computation in general. There is a lot more to come", says Stephen Wolfram, creator of the knowledge engine "Wolfram Alpha". In our interview, Wolfram talks to our reporter Vera Linß about Turing's significance, artificial intelligence, and the difference between computation and search.
