Geoffrey Hinton, the Godfather of Deep Learning, wins Nobel Prize in Physics!

So… in 2024, the Physics Nobel prize was awarded to a Computer Scientist.

Is Physics out of ideas? The Nobel Committee just gave a Physics award to a COMPILER SCIENTIST! What does this say about the state of modern Physics?  Though the first half of the XXth century was filled with breakthrough in Physics, it is clear that contemporary Physics is significantly less fruitful.

Is Computer Science the New Frontier of Science? This prize might just prove that Computer Science isn’t just about coding; it’s the new science playground where groundbreaking theories are tested and innovations are born. Computer Science is now the epicenter of scientific discovery.
