Comment on A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroom
Jankatarch@lemmy.world 17 hours agoThere is a funny two-way filtering going on here.
Job applications are auto-rejected unless they go over how “AI will reshape the future and I am so excited” on at least linkedin.
Then engineers that do the interviews want people interested in learning about computers through years of hard work and experience?

Problem is, people are choosing careers based on how much it will pay them, instead of things they want to do/ are passionate about. Its rare nowadays to have candidates who also have hobby work/ side projects related to the work. At least by my reckoning.

Problem is most jobs don’t pay enough anymore. So people don’t have the luxury of picking what they’re passionate about, they have bills to pay. Minimum wage hasn’t raised in 16 years. It wasn’t enough 16 years ago. It’s now buys only 60% of what it did back then.
