      Yeah, but his main argument is for coding boot camps. Those won't give you the same prestige as having an actual degree.

    I do agree that the value of Ivy League or other prestigious higher education has diminished, but I feel there is still something to be said about the experience of attending college as an integral part of growing up and expanding your perspective. I see the value of education at a prestigious school in all the friends I have made, people I have met, the fun I’ve had, and the interest I have taken in what I am studying. Also prestigious schools are the only way into many career paths that so many want to take. That’s just my two cents.

    Most of the people I have interacted with from IVE schools can be summed up in one phase. Incredible smart, not very intelligent. Ask them to recite a book, or formula and you will be amazed. Give them a curve ball or a situation they haven’t read about before and they lock up.
    Not saying everyone is not extremely intelligent from those schools. But more often than not it’s very very frustrating working with them. Well the books says this, or the book said that, and this is the way the book says it should be done to run a proper business….. bla bla bla.

    I disagree for one big reason: research. As technological advancement remains the primary driver of economic success and the private sector remains unwilling to invest in to “base” science and math (RIP Bell Labs Physics Division) - Harvard and other R1 research universities’ deaths will be greatly exaggerated. While alternative education platforms are good for technical skills they do poorly at disseminating theoretical information (anyone who’s tried to rawdog a Real Analysis textbook knows this well). Not to mention increasing returns on capital from advancing from tend to have downstream effects to other elites salaries and services demand.
    With current trends elite schools are likely to become more competitive as the gap between elite college starting salaries and non-elite college starting salaries widen. Technology that substitutes labor tends to suppress middle and working class incomes while benefiting upper class incomes after all.

    Signaling theory was initially developed by economists Michael Spence (1973) and Joseph Stiglitz (1975) as a framework to explain how information asymmetry between employers and job candidates leads to the use of educational credentials as signals of unobservable qualities.
    The theory draws on the idea that education may not only serve to increase human capital (skills and knowledge) but also to reveal an individual's innate abilities, work ethic, or other desirable traits.

    I feel like this is an *extremely* optimistic view of the situation. I'm an American. I went to college in Paris for fashion design at one of the premier private schools for fashion in the world. So, fashion is one of those industries that has maybe one job opening for every ten graduates. (The numbers look better on paper because most schools report graduates working in clothing retail as "working in their industry." God knows you don't need a degree to fold jeans at Gap.) Obviously in this instance employers have a lot of choice. It is not remotely uncommon for hiring managers to throw out *EVERY* resume from anyone who didn't attend a very small handful of schools. I have friends in similarly competitive fields.
    I don't doubt that the way we work, who we work for, and how we work will change drastically because of AI. I think the transition is going to be a lot more painful than you're suggesting. Sure, in the long run Google Certificates and whatnot might carry some weight and demonstrate a relevant array of skillsets. Until then, a lot of jobs are going to be significantly more competitive, and in most competitive environments, if you don't have a tippy top of the line school on your resume, your resume goes to the bottom of the pile. While I think it's a very nice idea that things will be more egalitarian, I think the situation is going to look more like, "*ONLY* degrees from top of the line schools are going to carry any weight."
    I currently work for a company that develops AI doing their branding and marketing. I usually end up helping with hiring, and we get at least 100 resumes for each job opening. We'll definitely hire people through organic connections, and in that instance formal training is less important than skills. When it comes to that pile of 100 resumes, we want PHDs from top of the line schools. If you don't already have connections in the industry you want to work in, I wouldn't downplay the importance of a prestige school.
    You're 100% that a lot of degrees are going to be worthless, but I'd be willing to bet money that it's going to be community colleges, state schools, etc. that become worthless first. Moreover, in most places you have to be a student to do internships by law, which are where people get their connections to start. Unless your parents work in the industry you want to go into, or have friends who can make hiring decisions, it's going to be rough making connections without going to school. School might not be a necessity if you're wealthy enough to start your own company right off the bat, or have well connected parents. If you don't, I think "Any college degree that isn't from a top of the line school is going to be a waste of your time and money," is probably a more accurate title.

When it comes to physical jobs where you have to deal with people and have specialized skills like doctors, nurses, plumbers, electricians, and many other fields, I think, due to logistical issues it will be very difficult to replace them. Right now I’m in accounting, but I may change my career field in the next few years, depending on how artificial intelligence goes. I also refuse to pay six figures to the college system for something I can get mostly for free online. The connections in the Ivy leagues are useful, but only for certain fields.

    Little correction regarding the clip at 1:09: AI is indeed extremly powerful and can create pictures and music. Though this comes with it's limitations. The problem is at the root of this subject: music, art and literature are the pinacle of creativity. Of course, an AI can create a picture, it can make music or write a book (regarding the quality of said product one has to be doubtful but let's give it that for the time being). The problem is that the AI does not create, it recreates based on learned behaviour within the limits of said learned structure. It can write a drama like Goethes Faust or a play resembling the old greek masters, but the second it is confronted with a task not previously trained on (for example creating a new story devise) it will break down. Humans can do that. Goethe, Schiller, Plato, Sappho of Lebsos, Warhole, Lichtensteyn and others proved their predescessors what they were capable of in term sof creativity. AI does not have this ability and currently there is no way it will ever have it due to the fact that creativity is so absolutly contradictory to analytics and logic, the basis of an AI.

    Food for thought from across the Atlantic: In my home region in Central Europe, universities are generally free (if accepted) and people can get the same (if not better) education than at private universities. However, I have seen companies encourage people to go to Ivy League schools for an MBA, mainly because of the prestige and especially because of the (global) network you get. One Consultant once told me that he didn't really learn anything new there, but he went home with an exclusive network. I think Harvard ( et al) will feel the pressure for undergraduate programmes, but I think there will still be a market for postgraduate programmes because of the network and prestige (as long as the brand is maintained).

    Funny that this sentiment seems to come mostly from people with Ivy degrees isn't it Mr. Cornell?
    It's almost like they've gotten so used to the benefits that they get from their credentials that they forget the role that the credentials played in getting them to where they are in the first place. That's the charitable interpretation.
    The not so charitable one is that they want to convince people lower on the socioeconomic spectrum to avoid these institutions, so the competition for entry is lower for people in their socioeconomic stratum and the competition for jobs that prefer candidates from these schools is lower for them. I mean, yeah, $76k+ like that Google thingy posted might sound good to an average American, but does it sound good to the socioeconomic class that goes to the Ivy League?

They don't take on student debt even though yes, tuition in the Ivy league is expensive.

IL is something else and cannot be compared. It's above else a place to start from the top when you graduate, like a manager or director job, everybody else must start from the bottom and your chances of promotion can be zero depending on the situation.
    I you graduate from the ivy and start from a regular job then you got screwed up and then this video indeed applies and even more, but such cases are so few that it doesn't matter. Everybody graduates from regular colleges for real matters.

    Not entirely true. The future of Harvard and Ivy league is to have the billionaire kids go to their school. That is why it is structured the way that it is. It is by design a way for rich people to pat themselves on the back and go look at us, see we paid for your son to be in the prestigious university through a massive building donation. Then Harvard if they are smart will basically invest it into the research and development to attract the best professors and research teams to build out that prestigue and have the most likelihood to have Nobel prizes and other such prestige to then create this perpetual motion of it. The education aspect is not what a university really is. It is a power structure more so than an actual education system. A job too is more or less who you know which is why Ivy League is and still will be in demand because of the prestige of getting in there as they don't just let anyone in. It is usually most appealing to the interviewer and if their parents have money. If they do have money and they are bad at it, they will receive an honorary degree because in a sense it is more damaging to be hard on the wealthy's kids than it is to reveal the truth. I think that Ivy league will still exist because it is a power structure and designed for Research and attracts those people who want the best tools money can buy to provide that research.

    Here's my experience: A college degree these days is mostly used for working abroad to acquire the work visa/work permit. If you're only going to stay in America, learn employable skills. If you want to go abroad, either learn the employable skills to start a business or become a digital nomad. The college degree requirement affects certain countries like China that hasn't yet jumped on the digital nomad visa bandwagon.
    To acquire a work visa in China you need a degree. If you're teaching English, that degree usually can be anything (Liberal Arts, Philosophy, Geography, etc). If you plan on taking a higher ed job in China (I'm talking about AP Physics), then yea you're going to need a degree in the field that you teach. Been there, done that, ate the dirt, and got the shirt. If you don't want to go into education in China, then you need a degree in your career field and usually they want to see around 5 years of career-related work experience prior to coming to China. Gone are the days you could fly to China on a tourist visa and land a fortune 500 job with no degree, skills, and mandarin ability. Same can be said for just about every country nowadays.
