L'accordo di Copenaghen

Read time: 1 min

Comincia ad apparire qualche numero sulla bozza di accordo che circola al Summit di Copenaghen. Cifre che tamponano il flop totale, ma che deludono chi si aspettava dalla conferenza un vero e proprio nuovo protocollo vincolante che mandasse in soffitta Kyoto.

Non è così, purtroppo. L'obiettivo che si sta profilando è quello di abbattere del 50% per il 2050 le emissioni del 1990. L'impegno delle nazioni sviluppate si spingerebbe fino all'80% secondo le indiscrezioni.

Leggi l'ultima bozza di accordo.

Why have neural networks won the Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry?

This year, Artificial Intelligence played a leading role in the Nobel Prizes for Physics and Chemistry. More specifically, it would be better to say machine learning and neural networks, thanks to whose development we now have systems ranging from image recognition to generative AI like Chat-GPT. In this article, Chiara Sabelli tells the story of the research that led physicist and biologist John J. Hopfield and computer scientist and neuroscientist Geoffrey Hinton to lay the foundations of current machine learning.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John J. Hopfield, an American physicist and biologist from Princeton University, and to Geoffrey Hinton, a British computer scientist and neuroscientist from the University of Toronto, for utilizing tools from statistical physics in the development of methods underlying today's powerful machine learning technologies.
