They will get on board when its good enough

I can't imagine being so eager to socially virtue signal. Presumably some greybeard told him it was a waste of time and it upset him

That's just blatant ageism!

I don't have a beard, but if I did I'm sure it would be white, beyond grey.

It's okay. It's okay to feel annoyed, you have a tough battle ahead of you, you poor things.

I may be labelled a grey beard but at least I get to program computers. By the time you have a grey beard maybe you are only allowed to talk to them. If you are lucky and the billionares that own everything let you...

Sorry :) I couldn't resist. I think I'm the oldest person in the department and I think also that I am probably one of the ones that have been using AI in software development the most.

Don't be so quick to point at old people and make assumptions. Sometimes all those years actually translate into useful experience :)

Possibly. The focus of a lot of young people should be to try and effect political change that allows billionares wealth grow unended. AI is all going to accelerate this very rapidly now. Just look at what kind of world some of those with the most wealth are wanting to impose on the others now. It's frightening.
