Beyond recognizing the laureates’ inspirations from condensed-matter physics and statistical mechanics, the prize celebrates interdisciplinarity. At its core, this prize is about how elements of physics have driven the development of computational algorithms to mimic biological learning, impacting how we make discoveries today across STEM.
i’m here to remind you that for last 20ish years half of the time chemistry nobel goes to biologists, and now they doubled down on ai wankery with giving it to alphafold
Physics’ Nobel prize awarded for a Computer Science achievement, actual physics is having a dry spell I guess
They explain the flex at least
Seems like a pretty extreme flex, I’m worried it’ll snap.
If they award a Nobel for materials science, this should win.
Narrator: It isn’t.
