Alan Turing, the gay mathematician will be the face of Britain's 50 pounds of banknote

Alan Turing, the mathematician who helped invent modern information and break the Enigma code, will be face to face in the new 50-field bank account, the Bank of England announced today.

Turing is considered the father of computer science and Artificial Intelligence [ IA], and has worked as code decipherer in Blackley Park during World War II, playing a huge role in giving advantage to Allied forces in the Atlantic Battle, conveys the news from Telegraph.

He was a pioneer of modern computer sciences and proposed an experiment known as “Thesesti Touring” to find out if a machine could appear human.

In March 1953, however, Turing was caught with a man and expelled from GCHQ, since homosexuals were forbidden to work for safety. His boyfriend had been a 19-year-old man named Arnold Murray, unemployed.

He had died a year later, on June 8, 1954, at the age of 41, poisoning himself with Cyanide.

For something such that the government had apologized to him after his death.
