For those who haven’t seen the video, here’s a direct link of the commencement speech that was buried in a linked Twitter post in the article.

And like… ho-leee fuck, that is an absolute doozy:

  • read the room bro
  • such transparently facile and smarmy rhetoric
  • really obviously hijacking other narratives
  • strongly status quo
  • completely ignores that he himself is a robber baron who stands to benefit immensely from ML chatbots
  • talks about highly targeted ML applications, which are good and groundbreaking in a lot of ways, but then proceeds to give colloquial examples of just using LLMs
  • exhaustingly condescending
  • i can go on but will stop there for now
