'Every probabilistic algorithm that's efficient can be replaced by a deterministic one, so you don't really need [randomness],' Wigderson told Ars. 'The power believed to be in probabilistic algorithms doesn't exist.'

Several teams have explored the power of chain-of-thought reasoning by using techniques from computational complexity theory. These efforts clarify where we should expect models to fail, and they might point toward new approaches to building them.

Avi Wigderson: “You can’t imagine how happy I am that I am where I am, in the field that I’m in. It’s bursting with intellectual questions.”

“As far as we know, for every problem that we face and try to solve, we can’t rule out that it has an algorithm that can solve it. This is the single most interesting problem for me.” -- Avi Wigderson, recipient of 2023 #ACMTuringAward

Congratulations to Avi Wigderson on receiving the 2023 ACM A.M. Turing Award! #ACMTuringAward

It would be an honor to welcome you again at the 11th Heidelberg Laureate Forum!

🏆 Avi Wigderson, Herbert H. Maass Professor in the IAS School of Mathematics, has been named by Association for Computing Machinery as the recipient of the 2023 ACM A.M. Turing Award, often referred to as the “Nobel Prize of Computing.' Read more: ias.edu/news/avi-wigde…

Anticipation is building! Tomorrow marks the big day when the ACM Turing Award recipient will be announced. Who will join the ranks of computing legends? Stay tuned!
