I was pleased to see the news. Congratulations to Demis.

AI really seems to be on a roll this year. John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton won the Physics prize for their foundational work on AI as well.

The work in AI does deserve recognition, though I think it was a bit of a stretch to put it in the physics category. But if AI wins the Nobel prize for literature, I'll eat my hat.
