After graduating at the top of his class in Computer Science from Columbia University, Kai-Fu Lee successfully enrolled in Carnegie Mellon University to pursue a PhD in Computer Science. Before he began his doctoral studies, his department head, Haberman, told him that the purpose of a PhD is to produce a world-class dissertation, at least one that is top-tier in its field. This statement deeply moved Kai-Fu Lee. However, it was Haberman's next words that benefited him even more profoundly: "Producing a world-class dissertation is not the ultimate goal of pursuing a PhD; rather, it is about acquiring a method of thinking during the process—a method that will lead you to top-tier success in any field!" Kai-Fu Lee's career has validated this claim. His doctoral dissertation on speech recognition using statistical methods remains a theoretical foundation for speech recognition products today. Through his doctoral journey, Kai-Fu Lee also learned how to solve problems and gained the courage to overcome challenges.
李开复以哥伦比亚大学计算机专业第一名的优异成绩毕业后，顺利进入卡内基梅隆大学攻读计算机博士学位。在读博之前，系主任 Haberman 曾告诉他，读博的目标是撰写一篇世界一流的博士论文，至少在所属领域内达到顶尖水平。这句话令李开复深感震撼。然而，Haberman 随后的一句话让他受益匪浅：“做出一流的博士论文，也不是读博士的最终目的。而是你在读博士的过程中，获得一种思考的方法，而这种方法将使你在任何一个领域，都获得顶尖的成功！”李开复的实践证明了这一观点。他关于统计学方法的语音识别博士论文，至今仍是语音识别产品的理论基石。通过博士生涯，李开复不仅积累了学术成果，更学会了如何解决问题，并拥有了战胜困难的勇气。
