Will AI ever win a Nobel Prize?

In the 17th century, Sir Isaac Newton formulated the three-body problem – How do three objects orbit one another under their gravity? For centuries, this problem has remained unsolved until a couple of years ago, when AI solved it.  “So, who solved the problem? Did the algorithm solve the problem? Or did the people who wrote the program solve it?,” asks Dr. Williams, Distinguished Research Professor and Core Member, AAII - Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute.
