e-mmb is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Doesn't exist in a pronouncing dictionary

I read about Turing Test :(a test in artificial intelligence in which a human interrogator attempts to determine whether an unseen entity is human or a computer)

It refers to Alan Turing, so, Turing is a person name.
Can some body show me how it is pronounced?

TIA
