And then the speakers get boo'd for speaking about something that college grads are saying is a threat to them getting jobs. These so called leaders are tone deaf.
Colleges need to do a better job getting their graduates ready for the job market. DC is a cs/math major, and every internship interview asked DC about how they use AI. Even for those not in CS, you will need to know how to use AI in your workplace. That, unfortunately, is the future.

Sack up and get your kids ready. Yes, some jobs will be lost. But be prepared for the jobs of the future. This is the future - the fourth industrial revolution.
This is a momentous time - a generational shift. Kids should be prepared to use their education for something more than busy work - for meaningful work. That is the whole point in having an educated class of people.
My kids are ready. They are critical thinkers who don’t dumbly accept the threats of aspiring tech overlords.

Hopefully these students learn not to be afraid of technological change. AI alone is replacing workers. Robotics are replacing workers. Soon the two merging will replace even more.

While it might not be going anywhere, the blind adoption of it when it is still in it's infancy is quite literally INSANE.
This AND they're touting it because they want to make $$ and they still have an inferior, fallible product.
Just saw on IG that Glendale Community College in Arizona used AI to announce graduates' names and it left off 100 kids. IT DIDN'T WORK!
Of course, these students booed. It's so overrated rn.
