Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to machine learning pioneers.
John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton were honored for their work on artificial neural networks, which created the foundation for AI tools that humanity can use “for good purposes” according to the Nobel Prize X account.
Hinton, a “Godfather of AI,” notably left Google’s Research team to speak freely about the risks of the technology and said he partially “regrets his life’s work.”
