EP 611: The Last Lectures: Why colleges still running from AI in 2025 will eventually die
Description

↳ Using 'AI detectors' to police LLMs? Better to transfer now.
↳ Haven't ripped up their 2022 curriculum yet? That university is on death watch.
I've been holding this in for a bit.
Time for some hot takes. 🔥
