  • Alan Turning

    Alan Turning
    His father was in the Indian Civil Service and Turing's parents lived in India until his father's retirement in 1926. Turing and his brother stayed with friends and relatives in England. Turing studied mathematics at Cambridge University, and subsequently taught there, working in the burgeoning world of quantum mechanics. It was at Cambridge that he developed the proof which states that automatic computation cannot solve all mathematical problems.

  • John McCarthy

    John McCarthy
    John McCarthy— he was born on the 4th of September 1927. He was born and raised in Boston. His family often moved to different locations becaue of the depression tat was occurring during his childhood. They finally stopped moving from place to pace when his father found work as an organizer for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers in Los Angeles. Even in the early stage he showed his interest in Math when he was a teenager he taught him self by navigating trough math textbooks that he obtained in th

    Minsky wrote a book
    Minsky wrote the book Perceptrons (with Seymour Papert), which became the foundational work in the analysis of artificial neural networks. This book is the center of a controversy in the history of AI, as some claim it to have had great importance in driving research away from neural networks in the 1970s, and contributing to the so-called AI winter. That said, few of the mathematical proofs present in the book, which are still important and interesting to the study of perceptron networks, were
