David Deutsch is a British physicist and pioneer in quantum computation, born in 1953. He is a proponent of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics and developed the concept of a quantum Turing machine, laying foundations for quantum computing. As a fellow at Oxford's Centre for Quantum Computation, he advocates for the theory of constructor-based information and the epistemology of Karl Popper.
