   • Aether ???
   @Aether it's kind of interesting, when I read about this stuff a while ago, most of these techniques were invented like 40+ years ago, but there just wasn't enough hardware to do them on a big scale

     Geoff Hinton and John Hopfield have won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their work in AI.

     Real AI, not this modern LLaMa crap.
     
     Hinton invented the technique of back propagation in 1978, and Hopfield invented the Hopfield network in 1982, which is a form of recurrent neural network, or a spin glass system, that can serve as a content-addressable memory. (you may need to look up wikipedia to learn what any of that means)
     
     The key trick for winning the Nobel Prize, well except the Peace prize anyway, continues to be not dying before the committee recognises your work. Hinton is 76; Hopfield is 91.
