Hassabis proposes a concrete test for whether AI has reached genuine scientific creativity: train a system with knowledge cutoff at 1901, then see if it can independently produce what Einstein generated in his 1905 annus mirabilis—including special relativity. Solving known Millennium Prize problems isn't enough; true creativity would be generating new problems worth a lifetime of study. Until a system passes this test, we're still in pattern-matching territory.
