    @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.

                  @Nickiquote "tradespeople will be helped by bipedal robots in two years" - yeah, they're called "educated people whose jobs have been wiped out by AI evangelist CEOs who know nothing of what the job actually entailed"

                      @Nickiquote I wonder how that'd fit with the "it's just a tool, you use tools to be better at your craft" crowd of AI pushers 😄

                        @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.

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

                          I also like: "AI Company Shill Desperately Saying Any Old Shit In The Hope Of Keeping Bubble Around Their Never-Going-To-Actually-Be-Profitable Bullshit Machines Inflated Just A Little While Longer".

                          But eh, I can see it's probably a little wordy for these times.

                                  It’s funny how Tech Bro founders can stand up and say “I made a million dollar company”, completely ignoring the fact their whole team did the work but they don’t count, while the AI product they made is considered a co-author.

                                  Sounds like bullshit.

                                    two years too late:

                                    Link Preview Image
                                    Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024

                                    The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 was divided, one half awarded to David Baker "for computational protein design", the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper "for protein structure prediction"

                                    favicon

                                    NobelPrize.org (www.nobelprize.org)

                                    Whole troupes of shitgibbons.

                                    And the thing about tradespeople - unless the robot can make cups of builder-strength tea, it's going nowhere.
