My new post in the CERIAS blog:
https://www.cerias.purdue.edu/site/blog/post/more-than-the-code Third in a series on AI hype. If LLMs cannot replace experienced people, what is the right preparation for a computing career? The capacities AI labs now hire philosophers to provide — communication, ethics, social literacy, the capacity to argue and interpret — are cultivated in the humanities and fine arts now being cut. Advice for students choosing electives, and food for thought for the rest of us.
