这场关于 PhD 价值的争论戳中了 AI 从业者的身份焦虑——做研究还是去产业？看完你会重新思考自己的职业路径。
Gary Marcus 在 X 上反驳了 e/acc 代表人物 Beff Jezos 关于“读完 PhD 是反信号”的观点。Marcus 列举了 DeepMind 的 Demis Hassabis、Anthropic 的 Dario Amodei、对冲基金大佬 Jim Simons、Google 前 CEO Eric Schmidt 以及 Intel 联合创始人 Gordon Moore 等成功人士，指出他们均拥有博士学位。Marcus 认为 Beff Jezos 的言论缺乏依据，暗示学术训练与产业成功并不矛盾。这场争论反映了 AI 社区对学术背景价值的持续分歧。

Ha. @demishassabis and @DarioAmodei , who are running the two best AI labs in the world both have PhDs. Jim Simons, who founded one of the biggest hedge funds in the world had a PhD. Eric Schmidt, Google’s first outside CEO, quite successful, had one, too. So did did Intel’s Cofounder Gordon Moore (of Moore’s law fame). As usual @beffjezos is talking out of his rear end. Beff (e/acc) @beffjezos @elonmusk @iScienceLuvr Finishing PhD is an anti-signal in many cases. If you didn't learn to go to drop out go to industry and build real things, then you are probably too theory-pilled 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 0 🔄 0 ❤️ 4 👀 455 📊 1 ⚡
