Dale EmeryHow is AI affecting enrollments in college computer science programs? Lots more enrollments from people wanting to work with/on/for AI technology? Lots fewer because people think CS skills are now irrelevant or will be by the time they graduate? Something else?
Third Foundation@dhemery I just read about an intern -- his internship was the last thing he had to do to get a degree (somewhere in Europe?)
The intern's supervisor asked the kid to do the things his resume claimed he could do.
Sum up a column of numbers: rather than copy the text to an app or tool on his computer, the kid used a pocket calculator--and got the wrong sum because he mistyped the numbers.
When asked to use a spreadsheet to sum the numbers, he could not even copy and paste nor make use of the spreadsheet at all.
He had been dictating interview and test/homework questions to a chatbot.
But he almost got a degree in computer science.
