Dr Michael Johnston: Einstein’s bastards

The name ‘Einstein’ is synonymous with intelligence. More than 70 years after the physicist’s death, if someone is called an Einstein, everyone knows they are incredibly smart.

Physics students of lesser intellect struggle with the intricacies of Einstein’s theories of special and general relativity. Many would give their eye teeth for some help from the great man himself.

They need struggle no longer. Einstein has been reincarnated as an agentic AI.
