Man, can you imagine, the meaningless platitudes that are normally said at these ceremonies, but it’s not even a human speaker, but rather an overengineered loudspeaker.
That sucks bro… hey have you considered contributing more to our new AI initiative? We’re heading to the maximum future, today!
Meaningless? I’ve listened to some excellent graduation speaches. Chris Hedges comes to mind
Yeah, I think, we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one. I know, I’m on the extreme side with never having liked such a ceremony. I think, it’s because I simply stop feeling represented with the kind of generic speech you get when addressing more than a dozen people, because I guess, I’m just too special of a snowflake…
So we should all shut up and stop calling for an end to genocide because its “generic speech”?
No, that’s not a generic speech to me. In that case, you’re motivating a specific political issue and trying to convince anyone who’s still on the fence. Contentious political issues have always been excluded from the ceremony speeches I attended.
Why? That’s kinda their responsibility. Especially now, during a genocide.
Anyone who was speaking at a graduation now and didn’t call for action against the war is failing miserablely
You’re right, what Russia is doing in Ukraine is tantamount to genocide
Ethnic cleansing*
The real question is did the ai go on and on (like my commencement speaker who narrated their life), Or was it a short speech?
Most likely a prerecorded message, whoever rented out that clanker probably did not want to leave anything to chance.
It did have a Q&A section where you could ask the robot questions.
Was the valedictorian a Palestinian that got replaced again?
Industry mouthpiece hijacks commencement speech to serve ads to impressionable new grads and parents, generates stupid headlines
FTFY
Kids in highschool during the pandemic are graduating college now 🤯
Getting old is so weird.
The “Ex Machina” sequel is going way too far to believable, they really need to dial back on the surrealist black comedy.
