Dozens
the local news outlet SFGate estimated it was as many as 200
No mention of how many people are graduating
Reee it’s difficult to estimate how big of a deal this was if the total number of participants isn’t mentioned.
On wiki it says there are about 1700 undergrads per class, so if it’s that plus some grad students at graduation, 200 walking out could be maybe a tenth of the attendees. Sounds pretty noticeable.
Very rare for the ceremony to be the entire graduating class. Its usually broken down by school.
There’s a video floating around.
1700 students graduating, little shock one may have had a cell phone
I guess that’s kind of like dozens…
Their ego is disgusting, every time they open their mouths they are met with disdain and they still don’t get it.
They don’t need to. They’re still making more each year than you or I will make in our entire lives.
They make more than we’ll make in our lives before lunch. Every day.
His current pay package is about $233m/yr. That’s about $112k/day. I think your math might be off. Even if you make $7.25/hr, you’ll make $112k in just over eight years. Still an absurd disparity, but not as far as you say.
BLS lists the median annual salary as $62k. So, he does make more money in a half day than the majority of Americans make in a year. There’s no way any one person deserves that much money.
If you look at the rate of growth of net worth, I think I’m closer than you think.
*each month.
Because this diverges from their day to day and how everyone else treats them. “Surely these students are the ones that are wrong”.
They are probably aware but want to campaign in an effort to change public perception of AI. It will provide less resistance and more opportunities for their company as this gets forced through.
Also, USA lives in a world where someone’s word holds no accountability. All companies/media needs to do is keep pushing how great AI is and people will start to believe it. Facts to support their opinions aren’t necessary. The blowback seen is probably from the minority of people who care about fact checking and accountability.
And then some of those that walked out will work for Google also due to job market shit fuckery. What a time to be alive
New grads can get jobs?
I’ve seen it happen! She… lives in Canada, you wouldn’t know her
nichole?
Oh, so you do know her
she ghosted me 😭. how is she doing?
Well, she’s dating someone new… but you wouldn’t know him, he lives in England
how do you know him?
Not at Google, Amazon, or Meta. Some companies are still hiring new grads to make entry level engineers into their future senior engineers, but it’s usually older companies.

I dunno. From what I’ve seen, they mostly replacing them with
outsourcingerm I mean AiHow is IBM still in business?
Well if they have degrees in software engineering, certainly.
Where have you been the last few years lol, new CS grads aren’t exactly doing well at the moment.
They’re still doing better than a lot of fields. I mean when you factor in compensation it’s still one of the best fields to be in. Compare to a teacher, where you’ll need a master’s degree in most states and then you can expect a salary around 40k. Whereas with software, when you do find a job it’s not unusual to start over 100k. But if you were willing to work for half that, I bet you’d find something quick.
They aren’t paying 100k for some fresh grad they need to train. They will pay them to train their AI models at the lowest possible price point though.
Plenty have given up after graduating and being on the job search for 2 or 3 years.
At least as a plumber or electrician you can actually still get a job.
BASED
For those who care, graduating class was 3,600.
Fucking banchode.
Yea, ban the chode
The kids are alright. (I don’t use that word in the real world because it’s improper spelling. It’s a music reference, all right?)
Fuck dumbass tech {m/b}illionaires.
Stanford being bad is not new. Better late than never I guess.
Then they used their google phone outside to use a google platform to send their meme about it and then laughed at friends writing them on gmail accounts.
Because there is only two options.
They’re in the States and have enough money to go to a major school, they probably have iphones
If they’re young enough to be in college, they were the other kind of phones.
