you are overthinking. most of these students had hard time getting a job or didn't get a job yet. they have 100K+ loan to pay. only thing AI has successfully done so far is replacing human labor.

Yes its more difficult now they are not students.

Would you say that the same students who are protesting AI have used AI to graduate? Its ok either way.

Edits - condensing the questions:

1) Are these protests reflective of the majority of students?

2) Do the majority of students use LLMs regularly in education?

Given the above questions what change in education and change in personal AI use might we see?

  • Everyone is being told they have to use AI to get ahead, so they do.

    They're still not going to get a job, and if they have a job, they're still going to get laid off no matter how hard they use AI, because the AI can also use AI.

    We're being told there's no room for humans in the future.

  • The friction at these commencements is a reaction to the macroeconomic consequences not the technology itself.
