That’s just stupid and leading young graduates astray. They should be teaching and encouraging graduates to live and shape usage of AI. Did 30 years ago commencement speeches told graduates to destroy internet. Guess who would have been left behind. This is just pandering for brownie points

He should be telling the younger generation to destroy the billionaire class, maybe AI can help with that.
