Just to appease Skynet.

    Yes, truly, they are pioneers in new ways to increase emissions. I can see why they received Nobel prizes.

    It’s a new technology and they used it to make scientific breakthroughs in many different fields? I guess you could read this comic as not being anti-ai but it definitely reads like it to me.

      And you can tell they used the AI to solve some physics shit. Like, that probably took a lot of data management and setting up the models and what not - but the prize is for PROGRESSING the field of physics.

      … it’s not for like, how good you know physics, there’s not like an exam and then some guy "knows physics the best"

      …it’s for moving knowledge forwards in a field.

        As the guy above you mentioned, the prize is for progressing the field of physics, biology, math etc. not for knowing the field the best. They used an unrelated technology to advance those fields in a novel and significant way.

          It’s just a tool. Inventing a hammer doesn’t make you a carpenter, the same way that developing an LLM doesn’t make you a physicist or chemist.

            Yes, but the first person who invented the hammer would absolutely deserve a carpentry prize if they built a new type of chair with the hammer as proof of the usefulness of their new tool.
