“Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt was booed throughout this commencement speech at the University of Arizona for his praise of AI. This comes just a week after another commencement speaker who mentioned AI was booed at a school in Florida.” Via 404 media

Replace AI with ANY other business and you’d STILL end up with the most self indulgent, completely meaningless speeches

That’s the common thread I see in AI hype like this.

It’s all just deeply devoid of humanity. Grads deserve so much better.

On the positive side this gives me hope for humanity. It's good to not feel alone as a critic of "AI".
And the kids are alright 😁
@annaecook I particularly like Mark Rober's and Steve Jobs' speeches. I was not expecting much from Schmidt.
