Workers should learn AI skills and companies should use it because it's a "cognitive amplifier," claims Satya Nadella.

Wym you would be at a disadvantage? College isn't a competition. By not using AI in the learning process and submissions you might get a lower grade than others, but trust me no one fucking checks your college grades. They check if you know what you are doing.

In fact you wouldn't get a lower grade, others would have an inflated grade which then won't translate to skills and will have issues in the workforce.

It didn't sit right with me. I made the deans list each semester before that for good grades. I wanted no speculation that my grades were influenced by AI in the next semester. In a competitive job market, making the deans list consistently could absolutely stand out among other candidates. It shows respect for deadlines and the education.

This has to be a bot - no student in the history of the universe has ever said this, ever

Not a bot. Both my internship interviews commented on me making the deans list.
