网友评： @马延明 ▽ 项立刚老师是真厉害,诺贝尔评审委员会应该反思: 1、发现电磁感应现象的法拉第，为什么没有直接发明出便宜好用的家用电器? 2、 发现DNA双螺旋结构的沃森和克里克，为什么没有直接开办基因治疗医院? 3、提出深度学习理论的科学家,为什么没有直接造出物美价廉的自动驾驶汽车? 4、量子力学奖项获得者,为什么就不造半导体器件、激光、量子密码学和量子计算机? 为什么不造磁共振成像（MRI）、量子点靶向治疗、量子传感器等产品? 5、.....太多的为什么只有理论，没有直接产品? 项立刚老师肯定能在不使用基础科学的基础上，造出造福全人类的新型技术性产品。 收 走 2 ◆蜘蛛 :有网友总结得很到位：一年一度看不上诺贝尔奖的活动又开始了。 国 区 巴 白 28 25-10-8 13:36 来自江苏 往期趣图 (点击下方图片可跳转阅读) 趣图: 一句话让程序员立马翻脸 扎心了老铁 趣图:学完这门语言后,没想到竟然 接手了母亲大人的项目 趣图: 这真的是 feature ...
