Way back in 2017 I was offered a job managing a small retreat center in the middle of bumblefuck nowhere along the shores of Lake Superior.
The pay was exceptionally low, but it came with housing and food. 8 months out of the year would have been spent just being there and keeping the place in order, the other 4 were for hosting guests.
I went back to school instead.
The fuck was I thinking? I could have ridden these shit years out as a weird hermit.
I’d say that you could replace quite a few high level academic administrators for these same reasons.
They already behave like AI; but AI would be cheaper, more efficient, and wouldn’t change every 2 years.
And I mean that as an insult to admin, not a compliment to AI.
