2 exciting ASX shares this fund manager thinks are buysBritish-Canadian computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton and co-laureate John Hopfield are set to receive the Nobel Prize for physics on Tuesday in Stockholm. The pair landed the accolade because they used physics to develop artificial neural networks, which help computers learn without having to program them. These networks form the foundation of machine learning, a computer science that relies on data and algorithms to help artificial intelligence mimic the human brain. Hinton and Hopfield's path to the Nobel began when Hopfield, who is now a professor emeritus at Princeton University, invented a network in 1982 that could store and reconstruct images in data. The Hopfield network uses associate memory, which humans use to remember what something looks like when it's not in front of them or to conjure up a word they know but seldom use. The network can mirror this process because it stores patterns and has a method for recreating them. When the network is given an incomplete or slightly distorted pattern, the method then searches for the stored pattern that is most similar to recreate data. This means if a computer was shown, for example, a photo of dog where only part of the animal was visible, it could use the network to piece together the missing part of the image and recognize it was depicting a dog. Hinton, who was working at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh in 1985, used the Hopfield network as the foundation for a new network he called the Boltzmann machine. Its name came from the nineteenth-century physicist Ludwig Boltzmann. The Boltzmann machine learns from examples, rather than instructions, and when trained, can recognize familiar characteristics in information, even if it has not seen that data before. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which gives out the Nobel, likens this to how humans may be able to identify someone as a relative of one of their friends, even if they've never met this person before, because of they share similar traits. The Boltzmann machine works in a similar way, classifying images or creating new examples based on the patterns it was trained on. This kind of technology can help suggest films or television shows based on a user's preferences and past viewing history The Hopfield network and Boltzmann machine are considered to have laid the groundwork for modern AI. Hinton, a professor emeritus at the University of Toronto, went on to win the A.M. Turing Award, known as the Nobel Prize of computing, with fellow Canadian Yoshua Bengio and American Yan LeCun in 2018. He is often called the godfather of AI.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Creighton point guard Steven Ashworth likely won't play Tuesday in the No. 21 Bluejays' game against San Diego State in the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas. Ashworth sprained his right ankle late in a loss to Nebraska on Friday, and coach Greg McDermott said he didn't know how long he would be out. “He stepped on a guy's foot on a 3-point shot and you're defenseless in that situation," McDermott said after the game. "He torqued it pretty good.” An athletic department spokesman said Monday that Ashworth's status was doubtful for the game against the Aztecs. Ashworth is Creighton's second-leading scorer with 16 points per game and leads the team with 6.4 assists per game. He also is 23 of 23 on free throws.

NYC hosted a CEO killer lookalike competition and the winner (right) said if there was any cash prize, he would donate it to Palestine. A video of a man claiming to be the winner of UnitedHealthcare CEO killer lookalike competition is viral as NYPD is looking for the killer four days after Brian Thompson was killed in New York in front of a hotel. The murder of 50-year-old Brian Thompson unleashed a rage never seen before as people celebrated the death and now there apparently was a competition of UnitedHealthcare CEO killer lookalike. It is not yet known who organized the competition or whether there was really a competition but the person who claimed to be the winner said if there is any cash prize for winning the competition, he would give it for Palestine. In the video, several people were seen in similar hoodie jackets which the killer was seen in photos NYPD released from surveillance footage. The alleged winner also said this is the first annual lookalike competition suggesting that there would be similar competition every year. Though a section of social media users was celebrating the murder and feted the killer as a hero, the lookalike competition came across as "little too far" for many. "This is weird," a comment on the viral video said. "This is actually terrible and evil," another said. "This depraved," one wrote. The participants in the apparent competition also came with posters that said: Deny Defend Depose -- the three words the casings of the bullets had engraved on them. "Who's the organizer for this?" one of the participants was asked. "The FBI," quipped one. Celebration over Brian Thompson's murder Several social media posts across all platforms including X, Bluesky and even LinkedIn, attacked the practices of the health insurance companies to rob people of their money and deny the payout during an emergency -- thereby justifying the murder of Brian Thompson. UnitedHealthcare is a health insurance company and does not have a good reputation among its customers as many people are sharing their stories on social media now. Frenzy over Brian Thompson's killer After the NYPD released a grinning photo of the killer -- sourced from surveillance footage -- the internet went berserk discovering the man's similarities to movie stars like Timothee Chalamet and Jake Gyllenhaal.
