Quotes by Andrew Hodges  (?)

“For him, breaking the Enigma was much easier than the problem of dealing with other people, especially with those holding power.”
Andrew Hodges, Alan Turing: The Enigma

“Is there intelligence without life? Is there mind without communication? Is there language without living? Is there thought without experience?”
Andrew Hodges, Alan Turing: The Enigma

“Could a machine ever be said to have made its own decisions? Could a machine have beliefs? Could a machine make mistakes? Could a machine believe it made its own decisions? Could a machine erroneously attribute free will to itself? Could a machine come up with ideas that had not been programmed into it in advance? Could creativity emerge from a set of fixed rules? Are we – even the most creative among us – but passive slaves to the laws of physics that govern our neurons?”
Andrew Hodges, Alan Turing: The Enigma
