John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics for their foundational contributions to artificial intelligence and machine learning. Hopfield developed a network that stores and reconstructs patterns, while Hinton advanced AI with the invention of the Boltzmann machine, which enables machines to recognize patterns in data. Their work laid the groundwork for modern machine learning technologies like neural networks, revolutionizing fields from facial recognition to material science. This breakthrough is reshaping technology and poses both opportunities and ethical challenges.
