Künstliche Intelligenz wird bei der Auswahl der Gewinner des Nobelpreises für Physik helfen

From the article

>Artificial intelligence (AI) will be used by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to help choose the 2024 winners of the Nobel Prize for Physics. According to the academy, AI will help it avoid biases that are inherent in selection processes involving human judges.

>“There are currently 224 Nobel laureates, but only five are women,” says Anni-Frid Lyngstad, who is a fusion physicist and chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics 2024. “We have worked with computer scientists at Lund University to develop an AI system that can evaluate nominations in a way that eliminates much of the gender and other biases that can creep into the selection process.” She adds, “the winner takes it all, so we have to be certain that the selection process is free and fair”.

>Quality nominations from AI

>Lyngstad adds that the academy was inspired to use AI after reading last year’s nominations. “We noticed that some of the best nominations began with, ‘Certainly, here is a possible nomination for your prize’ and we realized that AI was very good at identifying the very best in physics”.

>The AI system was developed in collaboration with Mats Sundin and colleagues at Lund University. The computer scientists trained their technology using publicly available information about nominations for the prize that were made more than 50 years ago.
