A commencement speaker at the University of Central Florida was booed, with graduating humanities students yelling out, "AI SUCKS!"

      I had to watch the video. She looks so confused when they start booing. She tries laughing it off, says something else to tout AI and is booed again. Completely tone deaf.

        She gets booed, regroups, then says “two years ago AI wasn’t a part of our lives” and then gets cheered for it 🤣

          Yeah but she doesn’t realize that the people are cheering because they miss those days

      Given the joyful Industrial Revolution comparison, we’re wondering whether the real estate VP is familiar with the history of the term “Dickensian.”

      They are, and have been rapidly re-creating it.
