If I weren't able to walk and my name wasn't called because of AI and the faculty went "well, we can't do it again of arbitrary reason 2" I'd be pissed. I AM pissed for those graduates. The fuck do you mean you "can't" do it again? Read their names and congratulate them like humans with your human voices you lazy pieces of filth.

They're already there, but the next few months will see them infiltrate even basic index funds while being massively inflated in value.

We've attached a(nother) parasite to the economy, and we're probably past the point where we can remove it without it also killing the host in the process.

Welp, let's kill the host then ✊️

And how do you think that will go for the rest of us?

Better than letting a kiddy-fiddling child-eater run the place. Unless you're okay with that?

It's always better to die on your feet than live in a post-apocalyptic wasteland run by brutal tyrants.
