AI pioneer Yoshua Bengio has become the first living scientist to achieve over one million citations on Google Scholar. This milestone highlights the significant and expanding influence of artificial intelligence across scientific and technological research globally. Bengio, recognized as one of the "Godfathers of AI," made foundational contributions to deep learning, which underpins many of today's AI advancements.
His citation count has seen a dramatic increase in recent years, with a substantial portion of his citations accumulating since 2020. Bengio is also a recipient of the 2018 Turing Award, considered the "Nobel Prize of Computing," alongside other AI researchers for their pioneering work in neural networks. This recognition underscores the profound impact of his research.
The high citation counts in fields like AI and machine learning are attributed to intense global interest and rapid publication cycles. Experts note that researchers in these active fields are more likely to accumulate a large number of citations due to the sheer volume of work and widespread collaboration. Reaching one million citations, even with the broader indexing of platfor... download the app to read more
