33. “A computer would deserve to be called
intelligent if it could deceive a human
into believing that it was human.”
— Alan Turing
Inspired by Alan Turing, the
Father of Machine Learning
Turing believed that machines could perform equal to or better
than humans. He set out on a mission to prove his theories
founding the Turing Test. At Acquisio, we strive to continue his
work analyzing millions of data sets so that our machines not
only do the hard work campaign managers do, but make better
and faster decisions than humans ever could.
