So you're saying the ratio has improved? An education improving their ratio of faculty to students seems like a good thing.

Aren't all the big bad billionaires self-made autodidacts?

Most people aren't. Most people benefit from education. If there are unlimited AGI educators, that seems like an extraordinary claim and I haven't even seen a pilot. Is the plan to move fast and break education? Cause that seems kind of extreme rather than any sort of conservative I've ever known.

Do you just want to destroy those posh academic institutions? Or are the billionaires offering to subsidize education with donations by increasing taxes on themselves?

Or you don't realize that "faculty" can include researchers?

I'm confused. Can you clarify?
