Summary
This document is page 368 from a book titled 'Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?' which has been included in a House Oversight Committee file production. The text outlines various scientific incentive prizes (XPRIZEs) funded by entities like Google, Qualcomm, and Nokia, and provides a historical overview of the Fields Medal in mathematics, noting its funding by Joseph Field and the 2014 win by Maryam Mirzakhani. While part of a production likely related to Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell (given the 'House Oversight' stamp common in those files), the specific content of this page discusses general scientific philanthropy.

Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?
Are the Androids Dreaming Yet?
non-governmental organization to put a man in space was $10 million, awarded in 2004. There are a growing number of XPRIZEs, including, at the time of writing:
• Google Lunar XPRIZE, $30m to put a rover on the Moon.
• Qualcomm Tricorder XPRIZE, $10m to make your mobile phone into a hand held medical health scanner, similar to the Star Trek tricorder.
• Nokia Sensing CHALLENGE, $2.25m to build a hand-held medical scanner.
• Wendy Schmidt Ocean Health XPRIZE, $2m to create a method to measure the ocean’s pH.
Fields Medal
The equivalent of a Nobel Prize for mathematics is a Fields Medal. Joseph Field provided the money and helped set up the prize. Today it is administered as part of the International Mathematical Union. You must be under 40 to receive the prize. Andrew Wiles was 45 when he solved Fermat’s Last Theorem, so they created a special prize for him called a Fields Fellowship. Until recently only men had received the prize. However in 2014 Maryam Mirzakhani won the prize for her work on the geometry of Riemann surfaces.
