Knowledge can be transferred but understanding has to be earned from experience (doing something and getting some sort of feedback).
LLMs are commoditizing knowledge, qnd the result will be a relative increase in the value of human understanding and skills.
Some people may be baffled by the boos because they are so wealthy they lost touch with what it feels like to struggle to create and capture enough value to afford a dignified life. Some people are frustrated by the boos because it represents the failure of the education system to prepare students to thrive in an environment where thriving is very possible if you have the right attitude and skills.
Personally, I'm frustrated because many of these students are being sabotaged by the media they consume, and the education system is not equiped to deal with the deep pessimism or prepare students for the new ways to create and capture value.
