I suppose LeCun and Bengio are way too young for a Nobel prize these days[0] [0] https://www.ageing.ox.ac.uk/images/fig01.jpeg https://www.ageing.ox.ac.uk/imag

  No, these are the proper laureates (for that topic anyways, whether the topic is appropriate in the first place is another matter). LeCun and Bengio's works are undoubtedly immensely impactful, but there's no denying that they are standing on shoulders of giants.

    Schmidhuber enters the room and has lots of things to say.

      Well to be fair, everything important in AI is based on Jurgen's ideas! J/K'ing. That said, Jurgen has done a lot of important work, and may well be a bit under-appreciated.

        He does get a reference in the Nobel announcement, so he can console himself with that at least.

          Good point. I suppose if one is going to not win the Nobel Prize, a decent "consolation prize" is at least being referenced in the prize announcement for whoever did win.

  That is a really strange plot. It looks like they are fitting a really high order polynomial to what is more or less a linear or maybe quadratic trend. And the overfitting exaggerates the recent trend.

  My guess is that Ilya would be more likely to get it at some point in the future than the two of them combined.
