![]() Lukasz Kuncewicz, a co-founder of Enigma Pattern and its Head of Data Science, who was keen to retrace Turing's footsteps, decided to apply modern artificial intelligence techniques to break the “unbreakable” Enigma machine used by the Nazis to encrypt messages from its high command to control its operation. Since AI is still such a new discipline, and the company is seeking new uses for AI, its employees spend 20 percent of their time on side projects of their choice that encourage out-of-the-box uses of AI. ![]() When you consider that codebreaking at Bletchley Park used 210 Bombes together with up to 10 Colossus machines were used for the daily codebreaking task, you can see that Enigma Pattern used AI to good effect and that the cost of the computing power required for hugely demanding number crunching has indeed reduced dramatically.Įnigma Pattern is startup that uses AI and Machine Learning to help companies that collect big data put it to use. Meanwhile we ran news that the replica Bombe had moved to a new home in its own dedicated gallery in TNMOC, the UK's National Museum of Computing, in the grounds of Bletchley Park, to neighbour the rebuilt Colossus. June 23rd was the anniversary of Alan Turing's birth - 2018 was the 106th - and this news story surfaced as a result. Using AI processes across 2,000 DigitalOcean servers, engineers at Enigma Pattern accomplished in 13 minutes and at a cost of just $7 the feat for which Alan Turing and Gordon Welchman, working on a basis provided by Polish cryptographers, built the Bombe and Colossus machines at Bletchley Park during World War II. ![]()
