In 2021, Japanese scientist Hiroaki Kitano proposed what he dubbed the \u201cNobel Turing Challenge\u201d, inviting researchers to create an \u201cAI scientist\u201d capable of autonomously carrying out research worthy of a Nobel Prize by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>Some scientists are already hard at work seeking to create an AI colleague worthy of a Nobel, with this year\u2019s laureates to be announced between October 7 and 14. And in fact, there are around 100 \u201crobot scientists\u201d already, according to Ross King, a professor of machine intelligence at Chalmers University in Sweden.<\/p>\n<p>In 2009, King published a paper in which he and a group of colleagues presented \u201cRobot Scientist Adam\u201d \u2014 the first machine to make scientific discoveries independently. \u201cWe built a robot which discovered new science on its own, generated novel scientific ideas and tested them and confirmed that they were correct,\u201d King told AFP. The robot was set up to form hypotheses autonomously, and then design experiments to test these out. It would even program laboratory robots to carry out those experiments, before learning from the process and repeating.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdam\u201d was tasked with exploring the inner workings of yeast and discovered \u201cfunctions of genes\u201d that were previously unknown in the organism. In the paper, the robot scientist\u2019s creators noted that while the discoveries were \u201cmodest\u201d they were \u201cnot trivial\u201d either. Later, a second robot scientist \u2014 named \u201cEve\u201d \u2014 was set up to study drug candidates for malaria and other tropical diseases. According to King, robot scientists already have several advantages over your average human scientist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt costs less money to do the science, they work 24\/7,\u201d he explained, adding that they are also more diligent at recording every detail of the process. At the same time, King conceded that AI is far from being anywhere close to a Nobel-worthy scientist. For that, they would need to be \u201cmuch more intelligent\u201d and able to \u201cunderstand the bigger picture\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Inga Strumke, an associate professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, said that for the time being the scientific profession is safe. \u201cThe scientific tradition is nowhere near being taken over by machines anytime soon,\u201d she told AFP. However, Strumke added that \u201cdoesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s impossible\u201d, adding that it\u2019s \u201cdefinitely\u201d clear that AI is having and will have an impact on how science is conducted.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/will-ai-one-day-win-a-nobel-prize\/article\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/will-ai-one-day-win-a-nobel-prize\/article\">DJ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/will-ai-one-day-win-a-nobel-prize\/\">Will AI one day win a Nobel Prize?<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[3519,13570,16345,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-134305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-ai","tag-nobel-prize","tag-one-day","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134305"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134305\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
