I was the first to call Geoff Hinton "Godfather of Deep Learning", which later became "Godfather of AI." Thrilled to see him win the Nobel prize together with John Hopfield for AI. Congrats @geoffreyhinton!
Amazing -- even more Nobel Prizes to AI people! Congrats to Google's @demishassabis & John Jumper, and University of Washington's David Baker for their work on AI for protein sequences. AlphaFold, and @UWproteindesign's protein design work , were real breakthroughs!
