Let’s be honest: many students protesting AI taking entry-level jobs now were the same students who spent their degrees quietly using AI to complete assignments. Just digging through Reddit, you can find posts of them bragging how they finished their assignments with honors despite not doing the work themselves. Multiply that across 3-4 years and you graduate holding a credential certifying skills they never actually built. Now employers have figured out that AI can do the entry-level work juniors used to be hired for. In fact, it can do it better than the recent grads who can’t reliably offer anything beyond what the AI already does, because their “training” was mostly supervising AI outputs instead of producing original work. To be clear: this isn’t all on students. Universities failed to update assessments. Professors also failed to adapt to the new technology and clung to their old ways. The result? A generation of young people who are unfit for the job market and need to be restrained. submitted by /u/thhvancouver
