Yes, you are. If a dog mauls someone, it’s the owner that’s responsible. This is basic common law, long established.

It can be summed up as ‘put your money where your mouth is’.
Turnabout is fair play.

I think the shift is in part from learning behavior indicating an ability to apply (‘I wanted to do something so bad I went to the library/college/etc.!’), to the free availability of knowledge leading to a delinkage of knowledge v.s. the ability to apply knowledge and get a desired outcome.
AI can really help the outcome part (by just doing it for you), so for better or worse I see that delinkage continuing.
People who bother to actually learn while using AI will have an edge on those shovel slop, but there’s clearly a difference from previous eras.

Yep, they are setting themselves up for that. He’s already shown he doesn’t understand how to play DC politics. Maybe he’ll learn, but he and Sam have played this so poorly (and greedily) that public sentiment is clearly soiled on AI at this point.
I could see how standing up an independent body could be an easy win in the public eye, it’s becoming low hanging fruit, socially.

Sounds good! It was a waste to begin with. They can handle first-class.

It’s not crazy… the wages are below food prep. What would be crazy is paying to help someone else’s career. That’s why a well known rule of thumb for graduate program evaluation is whether or not they pay their grad students.
If they pay their grad students, then at least the time the grad students spend creates enough value to offset the cost of paying them.
If not, stay far away from the program.
Also, regarding the career comment: If graduate school is not at least the first step in a given career (it should the second, undergrad being the first), how/why do you expect gifted intellectuals to spend their prime wage earning years doing it?
Most people do not have access to enough wealth to spend prime wage earning years toiling to help someone else’s career with no return on investment.
