"科技"的毁灭倾向好像一把被包得很好的火，总要烧到头上，才能明白它有多么厉害。 美国记者斯蒂芬·维特（Stephen Witt）的上一本畅销书《音乐是怎么变成免费午餐的》，很多年前给我留下了深刻印象。那本书里，维特着重采访了发明 MP3音频压缩格式的德国工程师卡尔海因茨·勃兰登堡（Karlheinz Brandenburg），记录了勃兰登堡和他的团队如何在2000年代通过一连串编码彻底摧毁了整 个音乐行业。 在写那本书的时候，维特就已经明白，勃兰登堡等科学家对技术有种"痴迷"倾向。他们更在意技术创新本身，而极少、甚至从不考虑社会意义上的后果，甚 至赚钱也不是他们的初衷。意想不到的结果却是，勃兰登堡的团队从中赚了大钱，与之相对照的是，如今没有几个音乐人还能靠卖专辑为生，唱片行业名存 实亡。"科技"的毁灭倾向好像一把被包得很好的火，总要烧到头上，才能明白它有多么厉害。 因此，看维特十年后出版的第二部重要著作《黄仁勋：英伟达之芯》的时候，我有种似曾相识感。事实上，这本书的英文原名也并不像中文版那么直接，而 是叫做《思考机器：黄仁勋、英伟达与世界上最隐秘的微芯片》（The Thinking Machine: Jens ...
