## Summary

Dongxi NLP says that resources are not goals, following the crowd is not strategy, and consensus is not a path. The post argues that researchers, founders, and model trainers should ask what problem to solve, why it is worth solving, and what is the most effective way to reach the goal.

资源非目标，从众非战略
共识非路径，最强非最优

无论是科研，创业，训练模型，头脑要始终清醒：
究竟要解决什么问题，为什么值得解决，以及什么才是实现目标最有效的方式。
