When I was younger and argued that degrees were dumb because they weren’t training me for actual work, it was explained to me that the degree served as a filter for people who had some basic skills but ultimately had demonstrated problem solving, information processing, and critical thinking skills. Guess that’s over now (it’s still a blocker if one doesn’t have a degree despite 20 years experience)
School is what you make of it, but how can the employer filter out the people who cheated with AI?
