Why did the Physics #Nobel prize go to AI? - In our @Nature correspondence we remind of our research from 2015/2018 where *data* already explained how Hopfield&Hinton's works 1) are physics and 2) fit the physics Nobel prize: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Based on data (not opinions), the works of Hopfield and Hinton #NobelPrize2024 1. Are physics nature.com/articles/nphys349… 2. Were awaiting recognition nature.com/articles/s41567-0… These are #scienceofscience works as part of my decade-long effort defining physics quantitatively

Glad that #NobelPrize Physics caught up with recognizing interdisciplinary discoveries! We investigated the interdisciplinarity of nobel prizes back in 2018 and found that some notable works, like Hinton&Hopfield, were missing recognition #scienceofscience

Also given current “summer shower”, highly recommend dl the Danish meteorological institute app: apps.apple.com/us/app/dmi-ve… Forecasts can be unreliable, but weather radar is 🤌

Yes! Awesome place! It's mentioned in the notes for the meat packing district, but perhaps it deserves its own pin
I would add Fermentoren, no food but best craft beer bar in town. Next to meetpacking

Of course - #ic2s2 will feed you, at least while there are talks, sessions, etc 😜

Welcome to Copenhagen #ic2s2 ! I have compiled a Google map list of food, drinking, and going out of options. It's a spontaneous mix of low-key, high-end, and comfort options but it is less touristy than the usual lists. Notes for each place. Enjoy! maps.app.goo.gl/idEuzyY8214Q…

I might add more during the week. Don't forget to reserve a table! In most places, even the low-key, you don't have a chance without a reservation. Trust a foodie! 😊
