[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Employment prospects are not great for the current graduates, and future projections are even worse. Nobody will need all these accountants, lawyers, finance analysts, etc. etc. What is the point of paying $$$$ for education that will be obsolete in 5 years? What kind of jobs will this generation have with the archaic education they are offered at colleges?[/quote]

This is a really dumb comment.  First, despite all of the hype -- it is not that bad for current grads.  Just not as good as past years.  And it is easy to see why.  No reason to think that will continue.  Yes everyone will still need professionals.  The jobs could change and maybe there are less of them.  But they still will be there in great numbers.  Remember someone has to run the AI.  There is no reason to think that a liberal arts education will be obsolete in 5, 10, 20 or 100 years.  AI changes everything and it changes almost nothing at the same time.  That is the core of AI.[/quote]
