With the #NobelPrize Award Ceremony coming up tomorrow, we asked FCAI and University of Helsinki professor @troos why AI was so prominent in many of this year’s prizes, and whether AI is making science obsolete.

En av finaste sakerna som finns i början av december, varje år, är förväntan på nobelfest och att lära sig om alla nobelpristagare.
Särskilt i en värld där det verkar som om respekten för kunskapen verkar gå förlorad, vi borde ära och festa ännu mer kärleken till kultur och vetenskap.
Har precis kollat litteraturprissporträttet av Han Kang, passande efter idags Sydkorea händelserna

Seeing Han Kang recently won the Nobel prize for literature I decided to get her most famous book, The Vegetarian, out of the library. It is remarkable in a number of ways. Here is why I thought that:

I'm not a booster of #AI, though not as anti as many here (it's a fun toy with severe limitations, plus ChatGPT is helpful for writing regex) but here's a really good use for it:

In a past life I was a biologist (I guess a cell biologist, or a biochemist in the loose sense), though not a structural biologist. Predicting protein tertiary structures with decent accuracy is massive!

In that light, here's my suggestion: After honoring Roger Penrose last year, who, don't get me wrong, certainly deserved any prestigious award, he's still much more of a mathematician, so something like the Fields Medal might have been much more fitting, even back when he was young enough to fit their profile. But nevermind, Ed Witten got that one, one of the most intimidating theoretical pysicists you might imagine, and not a mathematician.
So this is the second year in a row where the Nobel for physics didn't go to a physicist. Maybe the reason is simply that physicists have stopped making progress. There is just nothing to award for, so of course the commitee reached out to adjacent professions. It's either that or not award the prize at all!

Remember last week's #nobel2024 #nobelprize in physics ?
I fondly remember my student days and the course on #NeuralNets in summer 1994 given by Helge Ritter
from #unibielefeld, where I learned about the #Hopfield model for the first time.
I was able to dig out my 30 year old lecture notes, including the citation of the seminal 1984 PNAS paper, see below. Neural Networks have come a long was since then ! Yours, Steffen -

“Although the economics discipline has evolved over time to acknowledge environmental risks and costs, it has yet to rise to the challenge of climate change. A problem as massive as this one will require a fundamental reconsideration of some of the field's most deeply held assumptions.”

I am making up in timely for what I've lacked in consistency: new blog post. It explains what Wired said today but with 40 years of perspective. Lots of cool stuff today. Enjoy:

"...Han is the first South Korean author and 18th woman to win the prize. Her “empathy for vulnerable lives is palpable, and reinforced by her metaphorically charged prose,” said Anders Olsson, chair of the Nobel committee. She “has a unique awareness of the connections between body and soul, the living and the dead, and in a poetic & experimental style has become an innovator in contemporary prose”..."

I can't help but sharing a little anecdote. This morning I gave a lecture on non-coding RNAs to undergraduate students, where I presented "the short story of a short RNA" - the discovery of the first micro-RNA - lin-4 in C. elegans. Right after finishing the lecture I learned this work was awarded the #Nobel prize. It's such a pleasant coincidence, specially because it's such a beautiful work.
