"woAH! WhAts hApPeNing??!" God that's embarassing. But if she's big dog at a university she must understand the implications
This is the University of Central Florida, a decently big CS/engineering school in the area (big feeder for Lockheed Martin). Doesn't shock me that the student body knows what's up.
What a fucking clueless bitch. She goes on to compare AI with the rise of the Internet, without the most basic understanding that the Internet was supposed to transform our lives for good, while the primary objective of AI is to replace as many human jobs as possible, simply to increase profits, at the expense of nearly EVERYTHING else.
Who's in the bubble? The woman calling a poorly created neural net the next industrial revolution, or the students not realising the job market has gotten so toxic they aren't getting employed?
I'd argue that the students know this, and is part of the reason they're booing. LLMs have given execs the excuse they needed to cut headcount which has caused the job market toxicity. Of course, LLMs are not ready to replace almost anyone except for those executives.
It hugely depends on what their fields are. But it's always acceptable to boo AI boosters.
Calling the largest waste of money since the dawn of money a good thing deserves a swift kick to the face, but since that's illegal, mockery will have to do.
