Can Artificial Intelligence Advance Fundamental Physics? — •Alexander Unzicker — Pestalozzi-Gymnasium München

Recent successes of Deep Neural Networks suggest that this kind of artificial intelligence (AI) will be of outstanding importance in the analysis of scientific data. The talk discusses motivation, prerequisites and strategies of how to apply AI to fundamental questions in astrophysics and particle physics, the two 'big data' fields where the new techniques appear to be most promising in principle.
