asks a drug dealer How do you feel legalization will impact your business? /sarcasm

Disclaimer: I dropped out, but i do wish i finished just because it's sad to now be 36 and I hate leaving things undone.

In all seriousness, i think higher ed has issues to resolve regardless of whatever AI does to it. The ongoing imbalance between the value one can extract from a degree and what you get out of it has been mostly impacting students other than CS or other engineering degrees, but with a slower economy we may end up sucked into the issue other fields have long suffered from. Speak to anyone in the environmental field, hard to believe this is /the issue/ of our time yet we value is so poorly.
