The Fields Medal is limited to those under 40, as one of the criteria is
the potential for future accomplishment.

Assuming that these AI codes are not over 40 - that is, that each model is
a distinct individual for the purposes of the requirements - then they have
remarkably limited potential for future accomplishment.  If they are
distinct individuals, then which of them were around 10 years ago?  What
about 5?

Issues around their being legal minors (and thus unable to accept prizes
like this) aside, they do not have long expected lifespans before being
deactivated in favor of the next generation.  We might have great
expectations of their kids, but they themselves have more limited lifetime
potential than their human competitors who are being considered for the
medal, which may well include the humans who brought them into being and
whose expected future accomplishments include bringing said next generation
AIs into existence and setting them up to do great things.
