efficient move, getting the Nobel disease in before the Nobel itself

yeah, this sounds like a concession to the industry

I'm referring specifically to this where they could only put in a shaky bodge.

When you don't know an example, consider looking it up and not just waffling anyway.

a friend says:

effectively they made machine learning look like an Ising model, and you honestly have no idea how much theoretical physicists fucking love it when things turn out to be the Ising model

does that match your experience? if so i'll quote that

yeah, takes from physicists i know range from "wtf" to "it's plaaausible with a streeetch"

looking through the committee, I see Ulf Danielsson is notable on AI mostly for being skeptical (he writes pop sci books so people ask him about all manner of shit)

i wouldn't want to sound like I'm running down Hinton's work on neural networks, it's the foundational tool of much of what's called "AI", certainly of ML

but uh, it's comp sci which is applied mathematics

how does this rate a physics Nobel??

Are you sure that meets the letter of the law? GDPR would say "fuck that version of nuance, fix it." Microsoft now tries filtering on Bing Copilot in Germany, to variable results. What does the relevant California law say and mean?
