Hypothetically I'm a genius, how do I contribute to physics?

In CS it’s obvious how to contribute to the field, arguably this is due to the requirements being relatively low. How does one progress in mathematics or physics to the point of contributing?

I'm considering doing a masters in AI/Medical Research, and wanted to boot strap myself. I've been doing the stats 110 and fast ai courses, it had me thinking, could you lay out a general set of courses and books which themselves could equate to a "masters by coursework".
