Ahhh claiming not to care enough to get things right on a topic you also claim to be an expert on. That checks out.

But at least you’re not laughing at women dying due to being barred from accessing healthcare.

You’re not an Evertonian. You may think you are but you’re not.

You dont sound well.

Hahaha……

Ive hired PHD geeks since 20 years ago.

To help with your grammar presumably?

 

[efcste97]

Wrong and shouldn't be allowed, tory behaviour.

To help with your grammar presumably?

Perhaps you could provide examples of 'staff' in colleges moving into the private sector -- including the wonderful positions and huge salaries they would be earning?

Seeing as @Bruce Wayne could only link a 5 year old single irrelevant article and @StDomingosGringo seemingly believes they are hyper intelligent for spelling PHD in the correct format (dare i say Hakase).

Could you be the one to affirm their point or perhaps clarify why a foreigner with a PHD and a background in machine learning would be adept with English grammar?

Charging people more and more for their education is a good thing.

The stuff you learn on this thread. Amazing.

Rich people telling poor people they should just carry a load of debt....like Marie Antoinette telling people to just eat cake.

Splendid stuff this.

Yet in the recent past, only kids from Public Schools and Grammar schools got to go to University.

I’m more than happy for my lad to be at University under the current system.

It’s his choice and our choice, so dry yer fanny, you massive arse wipe.

Bruce’s link is provides far more actual independent evidence than you have managed.
I’m not sure that managing to notate PhD in the correct format is a sign of hyper intelligence, but doing it incorrectly and then claiming not to care, is certainly a sign of ignorance.
I’d be willing to bet that a good proportion of PhD “foreigners” with a background in machine learning would have English grammar adept enough to improve on;

Its asking me to register so i'll take your word for it.

I believe that anyone working & or/studying in a college is doing so to be able to either:

A: Land a high paying job in the private sector

B: Have an easy life whether that is by choice or because they cant handle, or dont want 'pressure' working in the private sector. Typically in my personal experience they simply arent good enough.

It makes no sense on any level that a college is paying 'decent' or 'attractive' salaries for second rate performers.

It's from China, but I'm sure I can dig out similar findings from western institutions - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1473837622000247

Long story short, people stay in academia because they want to make a difference to society. Not everyone is interested purely in earning as much money doing garbage for a bank. This is an issue for the financial sector more broadly, as when given the choice, tech workers would rather work in other industries because the work is more meaningful.

A.I is and has been replacing those "tech workers".

The largest trading firms are two years behind those currently using A.I (they have massive compliance restrictions and turn slower than Keane). So the shelf life of many geeks in financial markets should see a big change shortly.

This is not limited to finance, also many other sectors. One being healthcare and I'd need to go back and find the rest but there will be a big push into different sectors in Q2 2025

That will remove a fair amount of choice.

It really hasn't been replacing them. Tech firms have been laying off people because they hired too many during the pandemic. Heaps of studies have shown that gen AI hasn't gotten beyond the pilot stage in the majority of companies.

I have first hand knowledge of this.

If you look back and compare what I said to your post, I wrote:

A.I has been replacing people & that the larger firms are 2 years behind

-- Youre saying in most cases A.I isnt beyond the pilot stage.

So both can be true.

Things will escalate once the Nvidia blackwells are released.
