            @bobthomson70 @ryan @Nickiquote at least fusion promises a better future, even in late stage capitalism.

            Fusion: cheap, unlimited energy

              @Nickiquote Weirdly, the editor rejected the factually correct headline, which was "scientists will possibly use a computer to make a discovery".

                    @Nickiquote Let me guess. That's a quote by someone desperately trying to make his AI company get any kind of income?

                        @Nickiquote I was thinking a FORTRAN programme as a friend was a "et al" author on several physics papers as he wrote the code to analyse the data.

                              @Nickiquote Honestly, this is a brilliant prediction. As in, sounds impressive but effectively impossible to prove. Prizes tend to lag discoveries by decades - even if this nonsense proved true, it could well be 2050 before we'd know it.

                                @Nickiquote

                                Strictly speaking, companies are not able to claim copyrights for work, which is not completely based on the human mind.
                                Based as in, they can't let an AI create a prototype and then start from there. This would make any product derived from it unprotected by copyrights for these parts.

                                Nobel prices might follow a similar logic.

                                          @janeishly @Nickiquote it's kind of like they think of the stock market as a chatbot they prompt in order to 'make line go up', and sadly, so far it is working for the pricks.
