Alan Turing is widely regarded as the father of Modern Computing and Artificial Intelligence (AI). He worked at GCHQ, where a large LGBT inspired artwork has been unveiled. He was also autistic
His work included helping break the German Enigma Code, shortening World War 2 by 2 years possibly, saving millions of lives. This is in addition to conceiving different ways that computers could be used, not previously considered.
He is an example of how important diversity and inclusion is in the work place, whether it be autism or other invisible neurological condition, sexuality or race. His and the contributions of other autistic people should be valued.
