Cosa ci racconta di nuovo, rispetto a quanto sapevamo già, il sesto Assessment Report dell’IPCC sui cambiamenti climatici presentato pochi giorni fa per quanto riguarda gli impatti, l’adattamento e la vulnerabilità? Ne abbiamo parlato con Piero Lionello, che per l’IPCC è autore principale del capitolo sull'Europa (il tredicesimo) e autore di un documento sulla regione mediterranea, professore al Dipartimento di Scienze e Tecnologie Biologiche ed Ambientali dell’Università del Salento e membro del Consiglio di amministrazione del Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici.
Cosa c'è di nuovo nel secondo volume del sesto rapporto IPCC?

Why have neural networks won the Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry?
This year, Artificial Intelligence played a leading role in the Nobel Prizes for Physics and Chemistry. More specifically, it would be better to say machine learning and neural networks, thanks to whose development we now have systems ranging from image recognition to generative AI like Chat-GPT. In this article, Chiara Sabelli tells the story of the research that led physicist and biologist John J. Hopfield and computer scientist and neuroscientist Geoffrey Hinton to lay the foundations of current machine learning.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John J. Hopfield, an American physicist and biologist from Princeton University, and to Geoffrey Hinton, a British computer scientist and neuroscientist from the University of Toronto, for utilizing tools from statistical physics in the development of methods underlying today's powerful machine learning technologies.
