Fundamentally, college is about building skills and networking with people. Leveraging AI should be taught in all college curriculum since it is a power multiplier for everyone. This idea that AI is making college irrelevant is completely absurd to me.

- bdamm 3y agoThere is no doubt that some people can succeed without the structure of a college institution, but many people do NOT. And not everyone knows the tricks for connecting with quality and knowledgeable people who are invested in your personal success. College provides a path for that. I don't think it says anything negative about people who choose to follow a college degree path. Rather, it speaks to the talent of people who succeed without it. There are many paths to a good and useful education. I personally went to a university and got a degree. And I know 100% that I would not have succeeded without it. That's my personal story; I've met plenty of people who succeed outside of that. Not everyone is the same or can take the same paths.
- friend_and_foe 3y agoWell, from the current state of things, those people don't succeed with the institution either, which is why all the fuss. College is rather expensive for networking, rather time consuming and grueling if the education isn't the pitch. You say college is for the networking. That's not what the institutions are putting on the label.
