The Alan Turing Institute, as the UK's national institute for data science and artificial intelligence, plays an important part in driving forward advances in these technologies in order to change the world for the better.The Institute is named in honour of Alan Turing, whose pioneering work in theoretical and applied mathematics, engineering and computing is considered to have laid the foundations for modern-day data science and artificial intelligence. The Institute's goals are to undertake world-class research, apply its research to real-world problems, driving economic impact and societal good, lead the training of a new generation of scientists, and shape the public conversation around data and algorithms.After launching in 2015 with government funding from EPSRC and five founding universities, the Institute has grown an extensive network of university partners from across the UK and launched a number of major partnerships with industry, public and third sector. Today it is home to more than 500 researchers, a rapidly growing team of in house research software engineers and data scientists and a business team.Following its initial phase of funding, EPSRC provided a short-term commitment to ensure the continuity of core activity in the current model. Since then, EPSRC has been working with the Institute, and across UKRI, to develop the Institute's role at the centre of a potential UKRI National AI Programme. As part of the transition into this role, EPSRC are providing additional funding in 2023/24 to allow the Institute to build the foundations of Turing 2.0 and invest in activities that support the evolution of the Turing to a more open, national Institute in data science and AI.

艾伦图灵研究所作为英国国家数据科学和人工智能研究所，在推动这些技术进步、让世界变得更美好方面发挥着重要作用。该研究所以艾伦图灵的名字命名，他在理论和应用数学、工程和计算方面的开创性工作被认为为现代数据科学和人工智能奠定了基础。该研究所的目标是开展世界一流的研究，将其研究应用于现实世界的问题，推动经济影响和社会公益，引领新一代科学家的培训，并围绕数据和算法塑造公众对话。该研究所于 2015 年在 EPSRC 和五所创始大学的政府资助下成立，现已发展成为英国各地大学合作伙伴的广泛网络，并与工业界、公共机构和第三方机构建立了许多重要合作伙伴关系。 部门。如今，它拥有 500 多名研究人员、一支快速增长的内部研究软件工程师和数据科学家团队以及一个业务团队。在初始阶段的资助之后，EPSRC 提供了短期承诺，以确保当前模型中核心活动的连续性。从那时起，EPSRC 一直与该研究所以及整个 UKRI 合作，以发展该研究所在潜在的 UKRI 国家人工智能计划中心的作用。作为过渡到这一角色的一部分，EPSRC 将在 2023/24 年提供额外资金，以使该研究所能够为图灵 2.0 奠定基础，并投资于支持图灵发展为更加开放的国家数据科学和人工智能研究所的活动。
