Geoffrey Hinton — often called the “Godfather of AI” — has won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics for his foundational work on neural networks. Alongside John Hopfield, his research paved the way for today’s deep-learning revolution. In his Nobel banquet speech he didn’t just celebrate the achievement — he issued a serious warning. Hinton said that artificial intelligence may already be advancing too fast to control, estimating a 10-20 % chance that AI could surpass human intelligence and pose an e
