		jackallis on April 5, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Deep Learning Foundations to Stable Diffusion my nephew who is going to college this fall at east coast said, "what's the point of CS major anymore" and i asked "what do you mean" and he goes " ChatGPT". This is very cynical coming from 16 year old; however, got me thinking about impact of Chatgpt on peoples' mind about learning ML/AI if chatgpt can do it all!

The year is 1900. College-bound nephew says "what's the point of a physics major anymore?" I asked "what do you mean?" and he goes "Newton's Laws".

In my opinion you still need to have a grasp of the concepts, because ChatGPT still hallucinates stuff and messes stuff up.
