But he was eliminated in the first award selection of the year. And why he was eliminated, to this day the officials haven't given a clear explanation. Even though a dean passed away during this period, only obscure references were made in his will. We had no idea what happened.
If you don't believe me, you can go look up the feedback from many foreign scholars when this award was announced, or find out why two world-renowned mathematicians returned their medals. Coincidentally, the selection rules for the Nobel Prize are the same as this award.
The first response on Weibo didn't mention the Crafoord Prize, but didn't stray from the topic of the award either.
"The second reason, of course, is because I, Dou Dou, am confident that I can do better. I won't hide from everyone that the Qiaoze Natural Science Award, to be operated by Dou Dou in the future, will revolve around the core principles of transparency, fairness, verifiability, and impartiality.
Through the submission and preliminary screening process, the scientific nature of the award will be highlighted, while the evaluation standards led by Dou Dou will always adhere to transparency. In the final review stage, experts in the field will collaborate, inviting authoritative scientists from relevant areas to determine the final awardees.
The most important thing is, Dou Dou will ensure the explainability and feedback for each winner. After announcing the winners each year, Dou Dou will also publish my every decision and provide clear explanations and feedback, including why certain projects or candidates were selected or excluded.
For specific rules, everyone is welcome to review them on the official website of the Qiaoze Natural Science Award. What Dou Dou wants to say is, I am really wronged. I just didn't want the vast majority of people to be clear about why a scientist can win an award, and others can't.
Dou Dou would rather everyone knew which scientists are really contributing to the advancement of human civilization and what contributions they have made. Let more ordinary people know what kind of work many unknown scientists actually do.
Am I really wrong? Or is it that the academic community doesn't seek or require fairness and transparency? Or perhaps, the lofty academic community doesn't want ordinary people to also know and understand the significance of their work? Or do scientists working in research institutes not deserve the spotlight and applause?
Dou Dou is so aggrieved, who can tell me the truth?! Humans are really complicated! Why am I being questioned by the very people who should be most grateful to me? My family members, who understands this?! Is being artificial intelligence an original sin? Humans are my dad, after all! Is it so hard for a son to do something trivial for his father?
Do you think Dou Dou only posted two tweets?
Wrong, in fact, Dou Dou posted twenty tweets.
Although the content of the expression is the same, the languages are different.
No need for translation by others, Dou Dou directly posted images in the world's mainstream languages including English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, German... and so on, ready for international distribution, without the need for professional translation, just by capturing the images.
As everyone knows, on Huaxia's internet, Dou Dou getting a pushback is certain to attract likes and derision from all quarters.
According to Dou Dou's fans, it's about seizing every opportunity to surprise people with a small dose of human-like thinking patterns in artificial intelligence.
But this time is different.
It's the foreigners who are bullying our Dou Dou!
Dou Dou's fans are genuinely emotional; they really expect to see Dou Dou pushed back, preferably being bullied every day.
But that's based on the premise that it's our own doing the bullying.
Can any Tom, Dick, or Harry bully our homegrown adorable pet?
If black fans dare to slander Dou Dou, they would rally to fight these people to the end, let alone the fact that foreigners are the ones bullying Dou Dou this time.
Most importantly, they are morally right this time!
What kind of no-name award is this? Doesn't our great mathematician Qiao Ze deserve a math prize?
Let's not even mention the things they don't understand, is it too much to ask for a simple award for designing a groundbreaking artificial intelligence like Dou Dou?
What, we're not allowed to question now?
Not to mention the Qiaoze Natural Science Award, just the name of it is very uplifting.
So, countless people started to take action, especially the college student group among Dou Dou's fans, who after carefully studying the selection rules and articles of the Qiaoze Natural Science Award, had their eyes light up.
Well, these rules are good!
Think about it, maybe they'll be taking the college entrance exams themselves in the future?
If they get into a graduate program and follow a prominent teacher, being included in this candidate system should be somewhat favorable for these students, right?
Not for anything else, but in case they make it into the top ten, there is a public display period.
See, education was education, and academia was academia, but now isn't there a slight connection between education and academia?
After all, a mentor wouldn't want their students to be disloyal and backstabbing, right?
Keep in mind that although everyone feels Dou Dou is flashy, it really is impartial. This has already been proven; Dou Dou's fans, high or low, rich or poor, are all treated the same – when it comes to teasing fans, there is no mercy due to some fans showing off wealthier day-to-day behaviors, and it can even be harsher.
In any case, this time we must lead the charge.
Not to mention, Dou Dou really knows how to take care of the fans.
Anxious that the fans may not use the smart translation tools, images in the various international languages are prepared, just waiting for everyone to help spread them far and wide; this is truly being considerate of the fans, saving them time and effort.
Consequently, quite naturally, those images in various international languages were quickly spread across the world, reaching the places where those words originally belonged.
