Whoa, a university professor barely knew anything about the greater tech industry?! No way!
“For people like your son, by the way, who four years ago were promised, go study computer science, it’s going to be a great career. It is future-proof — that changed in four years," UC Berkeley professor Hany Farid said during a recent episode of Nova’s “Particles of Thought” podcast. “That is astonishing.”
“It is future-proof” is so stupid I hope he didn’t really say it out loud.
This same exact crap has been happening since the early 2000s, he was just insulated by being in Northern California as a professor at UC Berkeley. He’s been cherry-picking data the whole time and now he’s surprised.
The bubble academia lives in sometimes is genuinely incredible.
Also, give it a few years. There are a shocking number of unprofitable AI companies right now that are employing real people too.
Thoughtless dweebs like this guy kept pumping “it is future-proof” for thirty years and here we are. Millions of people who barely cared in the first place can’t find jobs.
