The technology itself is still not something related to those fields so what's your point?

As the guy above you mentioned, the prize is for progressing the field of physics, biology, math etc. not for knowing the field the best. They used an unrelated technology to advance those fields in a novel and significant way.

It's just a tool. Inventing a hammer doesn't make you a carpenter, the same way that developing an LLM doesn't make you a physicist or chemist.

Yes, but the first person who invented the hammer would absolutely deserve a carpentry prize if they built a new type of chair with the hammer as proof of the usefulness of their new tool.

Not really, no. But it's ok. You do you.
