Well, Geoff Hinton should get the prize for physiology instead. It's called “neural” networks after all.

Amazing, a Nobel Prize in Engineering!. Strange times indeed.

With all due respect for Hinton, this is f*cking ridiculous.

Let’s be honest, the connection between the Boltzmann machine and physics is about as real as Häagen-Dazs' ties to Denmark -- it’s either superficial or virtually nonexistent.

Congratulations to the winners of the 2024 Turing award! Oh wait...

I'm super happy for Jeff Hinton. Well deserved.

This is embarrassing.

But denigrating an old institution for fashion is trendy these days — just look at their Olympics behavior.

It's not like they could give it to the person who proved the existence of dark matter...

In fairness, "using physics" is a pretty low bar. It was plain vanilla combinatorics and network theory.

What a strange announcement. Seems like a joke.
