AI pioneers won the Nobel Physics Prize 2024.
American physicist John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton, considered the Godfather of AI, won the Nobel Physics Prize on Tuesday for their pioneering work on artificial neural networks and machine learning.
This award marks a significant milestone in AI research and its connection to physics.
The Nobel Prize is a highly respected award that recognizes outstanding contributions in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, peace, and economics. Established in 1895 by Alfred Nobel, this prize symbolizes excellence and innovation. Every year, the Nobel Committee chooses winners who have made groundbreaking discoveries, invented new technologies, or improved our understanding of the world.
This article is about the significance of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics and how it is related to research in artificial intelligence (AI).
The Winners Contributions
The Duo’s research work in the 1980s and 1990s laid the foundation for modern artificial intelligence.
The Hopfield Network developed by Hopfield is a type of recurrent neural network that can store and recall memories.
Geoffrey Hinton developed the Backpropagation Algorithm, It is a method for training multi-layer…
