@muddle@infosec.exchange I'm guessing Turing read science fiction, like Campbell's Astounding Science Fiction, in which he encouraged writers to include ESP in their stories.

@foolishowl@social.coop I wouldn't have made that connection at all. Sure, Turing would have been familiar with British Sci-Fi, but not with trashy American pulp fiction, I'd guess? (sorry for the uptick)
