黄仁勋｜卡内基梅隆大学2026毕业典礼演讲（完整原文+中文对照，分段版）
背景：2026年5月，卡内基梅隆第128届毕业典礼，雨中演讲，授予黄仁勋荣誉博士学位
President, Board of Trustees, esteemed faculty, distinguished guests, proud parents and families, and most importantly – the Carnegie Mellon University Class of 2026:
校长、校董会、尊敬的老师们、各位来宾、自豪的家长亲友们，最重要的——卡内基梅隆大学2026届全体毕业生：
Thank you for granting me this extraordinary honor.
感谢你们给予我这份至高的荣誉。
Being here at Carnegie Mellon University means a great deal to me. It is one of the greatest universities in the world, and one of the few places that truly "invents the future."
能够来到卡内基梅隆，对我意义重大。这是全球最顶尖的大学之一，也是为数不多真正“创造未来”的地方。
Today is a day of pride and joy, a day your dreams have come true. But this day does not belong solely to you. Your families, teachers, mentors, and friends have supported you every step of the way. Before we talk about the future, please thank them. This day belongs to them too.
今天是自豪而喜悦的一天，是你们梦想成真的一天。但这一天不只属于你们。家人、老师、导师、朋友一路陪伴支持。在聊未来之前，请向他们致谢，这份荣耀同样属于他们。
Graduates, please stand up. Stand up with me. Come on, everyone.
毕业生们，请起立，和我一起站起来。来吧各位。
Especially, please turn to your mothers and wish them a Happy Mother's Day. For you, this is just another step in life; but for them, it's a dream come true.
尤其请转向你们的母亲，祝她们母亲节快乐。对你们来说，这只是人生的又一站；对她们而言，这是梦想成真。
Please sit down. CMU students, you're like robots, executing only one instruction at a time (laughter).
请坐下。CMU的同学就像机器人，一次只执行一条指令（全场笑声）。
Alright, let's focus. I have something important to tell you. Being able to watch you graduate from one of the world's greatest institutions is also their moment. My parents have always been incredibly proud of me. My journey has been their journey too.
好了，我们集中精神。我有重要的话要告诉你们。见证你们从顶尖学府毕业，也是属于家人的高光时刻。我的父母一直为我骄傲，我的人生路，也是他们的人生路。
I am the result of their dreams coming true. And their dream was the American Dream.
我，是他们梦想的兑现。而他们的梦想，就是美国梦。
Like many of you here, I am a first-generation immigrant. My father had a dream: to raise his family in America. When I was nine years old, he sent my older brother and me to the United States. We ended up at a Baptist boarding school in Oneida, Kentucky. It was in a coal mining area, a small town of a few hundred people.
和在座很多人一样，我是第一代移民。父亲的梦想：在美国安家。我9岁那年，他把我和哥哥送到美国。我们去到肯塔基州奥奈达的一所浸会寄宿学校，那是一个煤矿小镇，只有几百个居民。
Two years later, my parents gave up everything to join us in America. They arrived with almost nothing. My father was a chemical engineer, and my mother worked as a maid in a Catholic school. She would wake me up at 4 AM to deliver newspapers. Later, my brother helped me get a job washing dishes at Denny's. At the time, it felt like a major career promotion for me.
两年后，父母放下一切来到美国，几乎一无所有。父亲是化学工程师，母亲在教会学校做保洁。她凌晨四点叫醒我去送报纸。后来哥哥帮我找了一份丹尼餐厅洗碗的工作，那时候，我觉得这算是职业生涯的一大晋升。
That's how I saw America: not easy, but full of opportunity. It wasn't a guarantee, it was a chance. My parents came here because they believed America could offer their children a chance. How could we not be romantically sentimental about America?
这就是我眼中的美国：并不轻松，但充满机会。成功不是保证，这里只给你一个机会。父母来到这里，就是相信美国能给孩子机会，我怎么能不对这片土地心怀感念？
Later, I attended Oregon State University. I met my wife, Lori, when I was 17. I was the youngest kid in school, and we were lab partners in a sophomore class. She was 19, an "older woman." I beat out the other 250 guys in the class and won her heart. We've now been married for 40 years. We have two wonderful children, who both now work at NVIDIA.
后来我去了俄勒冈州立大学。17岁我遇见妻子洛莉，我是班里年纪最小的，我们在大二实验课搭档。她当时19岁，算是“学姐”。我战胜班里另外250个男生，赢得她的心。我们已经结婚40年，两个孩子都很优秀，现在都在英伟达工作。
At age 30, I co-founded NVIDIA with Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem, two brilliant computer scientists. We wanted to build a new kind of computer, one that could solve problems ordinary computers couldn't. We had absolutely no idea how to start a company, how to raise capital, or how to run NVIDIA.
30岁的时候，我和两位杰出的计算机科学家克里斯、柯蒂斯一起创立英伟达。我们想打造一种全新的计算机，解决普通电脑解决不了的难题。那时候我们完全不懂怎么创业、怎么融资、怎么经营公司。
I just thought: How hard could it be?
我当时只是想：能有多难呢？
As it turned out, incredibly hard. Our very first technology didn't even work.
事实证明，难到超乎想象。我们最早的技术方案，根本跑不起来。
We nearly ran out of money. At one point, I had to fly to Japan to explain to the CEO of Sega that the technology they had contracted us to develop wouldn't work. I asked him to cancel the contract we couldn't fulfill, and then begged him to still pay us. If we hadn't gotten that money, NVIDIA would have gone under.
我们差点资金耗尽。有一次我专程飞到日本，向世嘉的CEO坦白，我们承接研发的技术做不出来。我请求他取消这份无法履约的合同，同时恳求他依旧付给我们款项。如果拿不到这笔钱，英伟达当时就倒闭了。
It was embarrassing, humiliating, and one of the hardest things I've ever had to do in my life.
这件事让我难堪、窘迫，是我人生最难熬的时刻之一。
And the CEO of Sega agreed.
而世嘉的CEO同意了。
I learned very early that being a CEO isn't about power; it's about responsibility – the responsibility to keep the company alive. I also learned that even in the business world, honesty and humility can be met with generosity and goodwill.
我很早就明白：CEO不是掌控权力，而是承担责任——让公司活下去的责任。我也学到，哪怕在商界，诚实与谦卑，也能换来善意与包容。
We used that money to restart the company. It was from that desperate situation that we invented new approaches to chip and computer design that are still used today.
靠着这笔钱，我们重启公司。正是在那样绝境之中，我们摸索出全新的芯片与计算机设计思路，这些思路直到今天还在使用。
For 33 years, NVIDIA has reinvented itself time and time again. Each time, we ask, "How hard can it be?" And each time, we learn, "Harder than we thought."
三十三年来，英伟达一次次重塑自己。每一次我们都会问：能有多难？每一次我们都会明白：比想象更难。
But it is in these experiences that we learned never to see failure as the opposite of success. Every failure is just a moment to learn, a moment to stay humble, a moment to build character. The resilience forged by setbacks gives you the strength to start again.
但正是这些经历教会我们：不要把失败当成成功的对立面。每一次失败，都是学习、自省、打磨心性的契机。挫折淬炼出的韧性，会给你重新出发的力量。
Today, I am one of the longest-serving CEOs in the tech industry. NVIDIA, and what I have built alongside 45,000 brilliant colleagues, is my life's work.
如今我是科技行业任职最久的CEO之一。英伟达，以及我和四万五千名优秀同事一起创造的一切，就是我毕生的事业。
Now, it is your turn to pursue your dreams. And the timing couldn't be better.
现在，轮到你们去追寻梦想。你们赶上了最好的时代。
My career began at the dawn of the PC revolution. Your careers are beginning at the dawn of the AI revolution. I cannot imagine a more exciting time, a better time to start your life's work.
我的职业生涯起步于PC革命的开端，而你们的事业，起步于AI革命的开端。很难想象还有比这更激动人心、更适合开启一生事业的时刻。
AI started right here at Carnegie Mellon. In the past 24 hours, I've heard countless AI jokes at CMU. Carnegie Mellon is one of the true birthplaces of artificial intelligence and robotics. In the 1950s, researchers here created the Logic Theorist, widely considered the first artificial intelligence computer program.
AI就起源于卡内基梅隆。这两天我在校园里听到无数AI相关的玩笑。CMU是人工智能与机器人学真正的发源地之一。上世纪50年代，这里的研究者做出“逻辑理论家”，公认是第一个AI程序。
In 1979, CMU founded the Robotics Institute. I visited some robotics projects this morning. The Robotics Institute was the first academic institution entirely dedicated to robotics.
1979年，CMU成立机器人研究所。今早我参观了一些机器人项目，它也是全球第一个专门研究机器人的学术机构。
Today, AI has begun to completely reshape computing.
今天，AI已经开始彻底重塑计算。
I have personally witnessed every major computing platform shift: mainframes, PCs, the internet, mobile, and cloud. Each wave built upon the last. Each expanded accessibility. Each transformed industries and society.
我亲历了每一轮计算平台变革：大型机、PC、互联网、移动、云计算。每一波浪潮都建立在前一代之上，让计算更加普及，重塑产业与社会。
But what's coming next is bigger than anything before.
但即将到来的这一波，规模远超以往所有。
Computing is undergoing a complete reset. Nothing like this has happened since modern computing was invented. For the past 60 years, the way computing worked barely changed: humans write software, computers execute instructions. That paradigm is over.
计算范式正在彻底重置，现代计算机诞生以来从未有过这种变化。过去六十年，计算模式几乎没变：人写代码，电脑执行指令。这套范式，结束了。
AI has reinvented computing. From human programming to machine learning. From software running on CPUs to neural networks running on GPUs. From executing instructions to understanding, reasoning, planning, and using tools. A new industry capable of manufacturing intelligence at scale is emerging. Because intelligence is the foundation of every industry. Every sector will be transformed.
AI重新定义了计算：从人工编程，走向机器学习；从CPU运行软件，走向GPU运行神经网络；从单纯执行指令，走向理解、推理、规划、使用工具。一个可以规模化生产智能的全新产业正在诞生，智能是所有行业的底层根基，每一个领域都会被改变。
For many, AI brings uncertainty. People see AI writing software, generating images, and driving cars, and naturally ask: What happens next? Will jobs disappear? Will people be left behind? Will this technology become too powerful? Every major technological revolution in history has brought both fear and opportunity.
对很多人来说，AI带来不确定性。大家看见AI写代码、画图、自动驾驶，自然会问：接下来会怎样？工作会消失吗？人会被甩开吗？这项技术会不会太过强大？历史上每一次重大技术革命，都同时伴随恐惧与机遇。
When society engages technology openly, responsibly, and optimistically, we expand human potential far more than we diminish it. So, first and foremost, we must stay awake.
当社会以开放、负责、乐观的姿态拥抱技术，我们拓展的人类潜能，远远多于我们失去的东西。所以最重要的是，我们要保持清醒。
Artificial intelligence – the automation of understanding, reasoning, and problem-solving – is one of the most powerful technologies humanity has ever created. Like all transformative technologies before it, it brings both immense promise and real risk.
人工智能，也就是理解、推理、解决问题能力的自动化，是人类有史以来最强大的技术之一。和所有颠覆性技术一样，它蕴藏巨大前景，也伴随着真实风险。
The responsibility of our generation is not just to advance AI, but to advance it wisely. Scientists and engineers bear a profound responsibility: to advance both AI's capabilities and AI's safety. Policymakers also have a responsibility to build thoughtful guardrails, protecting society while allowing innovation, discovery, and progress to continue.
我们这一代人的责任，不只是发展AI，而是明智地发展AI。科学家和工程师肩负重任：同步推进AI能力与AI安全。政策制定者也要设立合理的防护边界，保护社会，同时不阻碍创新、探索与进步。
History shows that societies that retreat from technology do not stop progress. They simply forfeit the opportunity to shape it and benefit from it. So, the answer is not to fear the future. The answer is to guide the future wisely, build it responsibly, and ensure it benefits as many people as possible.
历史告诉我们：回避技术，无法阻止技术前进，只会失去塑造技术、享受红利的机会。所以出路不是畏惧未来，而是理性引导、负责任地构建，让尽可能多的人从中受益。
We shouldn't teach people to fear the future. We should engage it with optimism, responsibility, and ambition. Only a small fraction of the world knows how to write software.
我们不该教人恐惧未来，而该带着乐观、责任与雄心去迎接它。过去只有很少一部分人会写代码。
But now, anyone can ask an AI to help them build something useful. A shopkeeper can create a website to grow their business. A carpenter can design a kitchen to offer new services to clients. The code is written by AI.
而现在，任何人都可以让AI帮自己创造有用的东西。小店老板可以搭建网站拓展生意，木匠可以用AI设计厨房方案服务客户，代码由AI生成。
Now, everyone is a programmer.
现在，人人都可以是程序员。
For the first time, the power of computing and intelligence can truly reach everyone, bridging the technological divide. Like electricity and the internet before it, AI will require trillions of dollars in infrastructure investment. This is the largest technology infrastructure buildout in human history, and a generational opportunity: to reindustrialize America and restore the nation's ability to build.
算力与智能的力量第一次可以普惠大众，填平数字鸿沟。就像电力、互联网一样，AI需要数万亿美元基础设施投入。这是人类史上最大规模的科技基建浪潮，也是一代人一遇的机会：让美国重新工业化，重建制造能力。
To support AI, America will build chip factories, computer factories, data centers, and advanced manufacturing facilities across the country. AI gives America a chance to build again. Electricians, plumbers, steelworkers, technicians, construction workers – this is your time.
为支撑AI，美国会在各地兴建芯片厂、计算机工厂、数据中心、先进制造基地。AI给了美国重新建设的机会。电工、水管工、钢铁工人、技术员、建筑工人——属于你们的时代来了。
AI is not just creating a new computing industry. It is creating a new industrial age. Powering this new infrastructure requires immense energy supply. But it is also driving one of the largest energy infrastructure investments in decades: modernizing the grid, expanding power generation, and accelerating the development of sustainable energy.
AI不只是催生一个新的计算产业，它开启全新工业时代。这套新基建需要巨量能源，也带动数十年来规模最大的能源基建投资：电网升级、扩大发电、加速清洁能源发展。
Yes, AI will change every job. But the tasks of a job and the purpose of a job are not the same thing.
没错，AI会改变每一份工作。但一份工作里的具体任务，和这份工作的核心价值，不是一回事。
Many tasks will be automated. Some jobs will disappear. But many new jobs, and entirely new industries, will be created.
大量任务会被自动化，一部分岗位会消失，但更多新岗位、全新产业会诞生。
Software coding tasks are being increasingly automated. But with AI, programmers can tackle far more ambitious problems. The job of a programmer is not to type code. It is to imagine, design, and solve.
写代码这类工作会越来越多地自动化。但借助AI，程序员可以挑战更宏大的难题。程序员的本职不是敲代码，而是想象、设计、解决问题。
AI will not replace you. A person using AI will replace you.
AI不会取代你，善用AI的人会取代你。
This simple truth applies to every profession: doctors, lawyers, teachers, engineers, artists, builders.
这条朴素的道理适用于所有职业：医生、律师、老师、工程师、艺术家、建造者。
The playing field has been leveled. We are all starting from the same place.
起跑线被重新拉平，我们所有人站在同一起点。
No generation before you has entered the world with such powerful tools and such extraordinary opportunity. This is your moment to help shape the future. So run. Don’t walk.
没有哪一代人，在踏入社会时手握如此强大的工具、拥有如此难得的机遇。现在，轮到你们塑造未来。所以全力奔跑，不要缓步慢行。
Carnegie Mellon has a motto I love: “My heart is in the work.”
卡内基梅隆有一句我很喜欢的校训：“全心投入事业。”
So put your heart in your work. Build something worthy of your education, your potential, and all those who believed in you long before the world discovered you.
所以，请全心投入你的事业。去创造一份事业，配得上你受过的教育、你的潜力，以及那些在世人看见你之前，就一直相信你的人。
Congratulations, Carnegie Mellon Class of 2026. Thank you.
祝贺你们，卡内基梅隆2026届毕业生。谢谢大家。
