Alan Turing is a mathematician and logician in the United Kingdom.He is known as the father of computer science and the father of artificial intelligence.He is the founder of computer logic and put forward important concepts such as Turing Machine and Turing Test.The logical work of modern computers lays a solid foundation.The Turing Award was established by the American Computer Association in 1966.The award was hailed as the Nobel Prize in computer science as a tribute to Turing's outstanding contributions to the computer field.Turing's research contribution is not only reflected in the field of computer science.His research has had a significant and far-reaching impact on the development of mathematics,philosophy,psychology,and biology.In 1936,Turing published his first seminal paper,“On Computable Numbers and Their Application to Entscheidungsproblem”.This article will give a clear explanation of the philosophical issues that are reflected in Turing's scientific achievements.Starting from the redefinition of computation and algorithm in computational philosophy,the essence of the “Entscheidungsproblem” is elucidated,and the relationship between computation and human thinking is discussed.On this basis,The research and analysis of Turing's second seminal paper “Computers and Intelligence” published in 1950 explains the concept of artificial intelligence,its research purpose and development direction,and constitutes a modern computer that constitutes the natural elements of the human nervous system.The detailed analysis and comparison of the operating modes and organ functions of the man-made components reflect the digital characteristics of the two components.Explain the concept of artificial intelligence,its research purpose and development direction,and analyze and contrast the operating modes and organ functions of the natural elements that make up the human nervous system and the artificial elements that make up modern computers,and reflect the digital characteristics of the two.Clarify the logical possibilities and practical feasibility of the concept of artificial intelligence.At the same time,it analyzed and studied Turing's third seminal paper “The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis” published in 1952.Explain the theoretical possibilities and practical feasibility of solving the mystery of the formation of biological forms by mathematical modeling of the changes in the concentration of chemical substances during the formation of biological forms.Finally,research and analysis of the human-computer relationship between humans and computer devices that also serve as general-purpose computers,Philosophical thinking on the boundary issues facing both sides.The uncertainty reflected by the universality of human cognition is the basis for the existence of freedom consciousness in the mechanized movement of the universe.Human cognition with countable infinity features will eventually exist in a belief manner.
