Geoffrey Everest Hinton (born 6 December 1947) is a British-Canadian computer scientist, cognitive scientist, cognitive psychologist, and Nobel Prize winner in Physics, known for his work on artificial neural networks which earned him the title as the "Godfather of AI". Hinton is University Professor Emeritus at the University of Toronto.
It's the first time that a Nobel Prize has been awarded to the field of AI.
Geoffrey Hinton invented a method [the Boltzmann machine] that can autonomously find properties in data, and so perform tasks such as identifying specific elements in pictures.” ...

Rumelhart was the first author of a highly cited paper from 1985 [4] (co-authored by Geoffrey Hinton and Ronald J. Williams) that applied the back-propagation algorithm to multi-layer neural networks. This work showed through experiments that such networks can learn useful internal representations of data. The approach has been widely used for ...
The original contribution in applying such energy-based models in cognitive science appeared in papers by Geoffrey Hinton and Terry Sejnowski. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] [ 19 ] In a 1995 interview, Hinton stated that in 1983 February or March, he was going to give a talk on simulated annealing in Hopfield networks, so he had to design a learning algorithm ...
Geoffrey Hinton, who has been called “the Godfather of AI,” sat down with 60 Minutes for Sunday’s episode to break down what artificial intelligence technology could mean for humanity in the ...
The news of Hinton’s award comes weeks away from the first anniversary of Altman’s brief, stunning, and ultimately unsuccessful ouster—as well as the second anniversary of the launch of ...
