Somehow I have a feeling that the reaction would have been totally different if it would have been the EECS graduates.

Fear and rejection in certain professions is real and maybe even understandable.

I imagine 25 years ago someone telling music graduates “streaming is the future of music distribution” would have received the same reaction.

I suspect for CS it would have been outright food riots. The humanities are probably the best insulated from AI as the uncanny valley is really obvious in AI literature and art. CS is the final stage in the “programming myself out of a job” meme which is quite depressing if you’re just getting your first job (or, more likely at the moment, not.)

		Interesting, it’s not my experience in recent interactions with CS students. There was more positivity around possibilities. However there was a feeling that “the job” is radically changing right now.
