(2026山东高二上联考)

John Hopfield from Princeton University in the US and Geoffrey Hinton from the University of Toronto,two early AI developers,won this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics.The

Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences gave them the award because they helped create methods that are the base for today’s powerful machine learning.

Hinton,who is 76,is called the Godfather of AI for his work in machine learning.Asked about the potential significance of the technology his research has helped to develop,he said “AI will have a ‘huge influence’ on our society.”“But we also have to worry about a number of possible bad consequences,particularly the threat to humans,”he warned.The Nobel committee also mentioned the fears and said humans should use AI safely and make it morally acceptable.

Hopfield,now 91,developed the “Hopfield network”,an artificial neural network that can find and store patterns in information in a way that mimics(模仿) the brain in the 1980s.After Hopfield published his book,Hinton expanded it using ideas from statistical physics and developed the earliest form of machine learning,called the “Boltzmann machine”.“Thanks to their work from the 1980s,AI has become part of our daily lives,from facial recognition to language translation,” said Ellen Moons,chair of the Nobel Committee for physics.

“Hinton had an unconventional background as a psychologist(心理学家) and was really curious about how the mind works,”said Nick Frosst,who was Hinton’s first employee at Google’s AI division in Toronto.“His interest in answering basic questions I think is crucial to his success as a scientist,” Frosst said.“He’s been always trying out crazy things and some of them work very well and some of them don’t,” Frosst said.

“For a long time,people thought what my team and I were doing was meaningless,” Hinton said in an interview.“My message to young researchers is,don’t be put off if everyone tells you what you are doing is silly.”

1.Why did John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton win the Nobel Prize in Physics?

A.They designed the great advanced AI robot.

B.They made a breakthrough in basic physics.

C.They laid a foundation for machine learning.
