- @jaeschke 12 years agoI found two quotes from the text remarkable: "The idea behind digital computers may be explained by saying that these machines are intended to carry out any operations which could be done by a human computer." Subsequently Turing explains what he regards as a "human computer": a human following a set of fixed rules (say, written down in a book) without any authority to deviate from them. The quote is also used by [[bibtex/1f319e8c67a7af1afd804774ccba7b717]] to confirm that cooperation of humans and computers as practiced in human computing is nothing new but an idea from the first days of the digital computer. The second quote is the text's last sentence which is really nice: "We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done." Which scientist would not agree to that?
