奥斯卡、行星与你sklearn里的算法：John Platt谈AI for Science

We talked to Google’s Oscar winning “Giganerd” about automating science, solving climate change, and how future generations can contribute to science in the age of superintelligent AI Brandon Anderson Sep 22, 2026 Transcript How often do you get to talk to a guest who has both an Academy Award and who invented textbook machine learning algorithms?
