It’s amazing how at 91 years old the passion of science, curiosity and insights of how our brain and body work inject vitality and emotion in the way ProfessorJohn expresses and tells a story that is the essence of our associative way of thinking. Which ironically reflects how also joining forces between disciplines only make us stronger and wiser! Thank you 🙏🏼 for allowing us to witness history in the Nobel prize awarded scientists.

They discovery the transition between our bio_memory-networks and all the networks of the universe. Great find. Congratulations.

This was beautiful. Thank both of them for their contribution

From Miss Donna Marie Baff (dons) The Godfather of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Geoffrey Hinton (cherry) resigns from Google on the 2/5/2023
Saying that "bad actors" will use the new Artificial Intelligence technologies to harm others and that the tools he helped to create could spell the end of humanity.
I support Mr Geoffrey Hinton for the Professor Albert Einstein medal of achievement award for his outstanding contribution to mind and life/science and Philosophy.
Remembering Professor Stephen William Hawking. Thank you for helping me complete Professor Albert Einstein's UNIFIED FIELD as one of the poorest people in the country.
Thank you

I guess folks just are not so excited by 'Hopfield Networks'.
TLDR

A Hopfield network is a type of artificial neural network that works a bit like a brain trying to "remember" things by finding the best match for patterns.

Imagine this:
You have a magical whiteboard where you write down some blurry or incomplete pictures. This whiteboard has a superpower: it can "remember" what the full, correct picture should look like by comparing it to things it has seen before.

The Hopfield network is like this magical whiteboard. It has been trained (shown examples) of specific patterns or memories.
When you give it something messy or incomplete, it works hard to figure out which memory it looks most like and fills in the gaps.
Once it recognizes the pattern, it "settles" into the correct, full memory.
Key features:
Memory storage: It can store patterns (like pictures or words) as memories.
Pattern completion: If you give it a broken or noisy version of something it knows, it can recover the full version.
Energy system: It uses a clever mathematical "energy" idea to decide which memory to settle on. Lower energy = better match.
Example:
If the Hopfield network knows these patterns:

😊
🐱
🚗
And you give it a drawing that’s half a 🐱, it will complete it to make the full 🐱.

In essence, a Hopfield network is like a smart friend who can figure out what you're trying to say, even if you're not very clear!

One day I will get the Nobel Prize in Physics too😅.

Nobel "Phyics" Prize is awarded to AI pioneers. It seems that the committee members were unaware of AI until they started using ChatGPT 🤭. Their decision is motivated more by the AI hype and less by the "Physics of AI." The 2024 prize has certainly not gone to Physics!

enterprise-ai AI fixes this (Code complete projects in PHP or Python). Nobel Prize lectures: physics 2024

He talks like Joe Pera.
What is this talking condition???

[Dr_LK]

Neural nets and coding are not physics!

Brilliant! Thank you for your contribution to our Humanity 🙏🙇‍♂️⭐😇💐👏🎉🧞‍♂️🪄
