So we'd go back to indentured servitude?

    I think Jenny K should do this.

    Her essay is almost unreadable. Please tell me how you think a recent college grad, probably with school loans, is supposed to pay for their own "on the job training"? I'd love to see your magical economics at work.

    Excuse me, haven’t we already seen tech companies going back to using junior programmers and boilerplate code because the LLM tokens are more expensive than just hiring people?

    Not really no. There might've been few outliers.

    Companies are trying to spend their money more efficiently right now (as in, "make the genie work peasants, but for pennies").

    That's why taxpayers are paying for massive data centres that poison their neighbourhoods.

    More data centres means token become cheaper and more jobs get replaced.

    Tax payers literally paying to reduce the number of jobs for their children to work in the future.

    There is something rotten about that writing. I can't read the drivel more than a paragraph at a time. It is like every sentence should have it's own paragraph and the missing sentences have left the flow of thought all fucked up. I have spent plenty of time around cokeheads and such and their train of thought takes the scenic route compared to this crazy train.

    Good luck finding the future mid-level class of your company when all the lower rungs are filled with AI. Who you going to promote? AI Albert?

    So I’m not gonna lie this kind of makes sense… If you don’t consider where the money comes from in the first place…

    And how will these promising new "HOTL" have money to pay for entry level jobs without having entry level jobs?

    And why use "HOTL" meaning "human in the loop"? What's wrong with HITL?

    No evidence, just mindless opinions based on nothing.

    Here's my take: In the future, Tomatoes will become sentient from genetic engineering and will wish to overthrow their masters. Only gen z, alpha and AI will be able to stop this....Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. I'm smart and realistic.

    She'll be looking for sympathy after the a.i. bubble bursts and she's bankrupt.

    What a fucking bunch of drivel. Without students and fresh grads our company would have been bankrupt a long time ago. They are the ones who bring a fresh perspective to the company (we engineer machines for the beverage industry) because they haven't been pushed into a specialist position yet, that breaks any kind of creativity. They are the people that spark a lot of our innovations. If we lose that, the company won't survive for long. AI can't do that because AI isn't fucking creative. Fuck AI and fuck this dumb piece of shit for their dumb fucking take on this.

    Sorry for the incoherent swearing, I'm drunk.

    Love you all, have a great day!

    Hungary already has internships with "reverse salaries", thanks to corruption and mandatory internships, though many instead moved onto the "pay us back the salary and your training cost if you dare to not work for us for two years after graduation, for peanuts" model.

    Jenny, you would be beaten to death in front your entire family for pushing this in any sane world.

    The response to suggesting such insanely inhumane and immoral shit as enslaving the entire population of the planet to the almighty dollar should be OVERWHELMING FORCE immediately.

    People will never be free until the last CEO is strangled with the entrails of the last linkedin lunatic.

    There is NO legitimate reason to endure the fresh graduate.

    So many incredibly entitled people have never felt the obligation to give to others that which was given to them. These people should be shunned by civil society.

    “Cooper AI Co-founder & CEO”

    Why would you expect her take to be anything but brain-dead?

    She's running an AI startup to service insurance companies, she's like 3-4 levels removed. Probably a strong case for conservative government grants except she's a womand and a minority

    The answer is kind of hinted.

    How do you pay for education if you don't have a job right now? Universities don't pay their students, don't they?
