Re:Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded for Machine Learning and N... by Findecanor on Tuesday October 08, 2024 @12:50PM (#41779314)
If a new prize is added, it would need its own funding. The five original Nobel Prizes are funded by interest from the fortune that Alfred Nobel left behind. The economics prize is funded by the Swedish central bank, and is therefore officially their prize "in memory of Alfred Nobel", not a "Nobel Prize" as such.
