As in any subject, unless there is a mindless hype (such as "AI" currently) finding a job with a specific degree requires you to have done well. Too many just want the paper but not the qualification that should come with it and for-profit "education" makes it easy to do so. Then they are surprised they have problems finding a job
Obviously. But those that "can hack it" are still going into non-vacuous subjects, not into "AI". And "AI and Cybersecurity"? How utterly stupid are these people? AI helps attackers, not defenders. AI may make defense harder though, because AI generated code is riddled with vulnerabilities. (Yes, I am aware there is more AI than LLMs...)
With the other half being of negative worth? Color me non-surprised.
I will be interested when they have a working prototype that comes close to the claimed efficiency. I predict that will not happen.
What if they hedge by shorting AI even as they major in it?
Are you saying major in finance?
Why were neural nets alone unable to do context-sensitive natural language? Is the attention mechanism which is not a neural net the real paradigm shift?
Why do serious people end up working for clowns on things like making screens jump around?
"fundamentals (like data science, OSI, etc.)"
Do you use those fundamentals to serve man, or just make them do whatever a selfish, greedy boss wants?
I.e. "we are better than you" crap. Because you can do all that with modern tech as well.
Indeed.
45 percent of students at the law school cited have mental issues? That defies belief.
Not really. The rate of students with mental issues in psychology is apparently even higher. The thing is that a lot of criminally-minded are attracted to the study of law and hence they cheat and think that is fine. That is a whole mental issue in itself.
As to a solution, see my other posting: https://slashdot.org/comments....
Yes, that requires better teaching. But that would be a really, really good idea anyways.
That alone is a reason to make sure FreeBSD will stay around. "No Flatpak or Snap either" is another.
Good to see that some people still understand what "solid engineering" means.
How come I was handcuffed to a hospital bed and involuntarily institutionalized after one attempt?
Wrong question. The right one is "How come you did not go to prison?" because that is what happens when suicide is illegal.
Maybe stop lumping things together that are different?
I only rarely have very early leavers with bad grades, but yes, I see the overall effect as well.
