Not like they have made anything with innovative with pixel anyways, other their obsession with using AI

10 years ago jobs for cs majors were pretty poor prospects already(as with all stem majors(, I think the Prof was out of touch. I was in a state school in West Coast,where a large percentage of students were cs, majors and the most common complaint is the jobs. This is from multiple forums, + in person experience. I had several people I know who had cs majors, job prospects are lacking,so they went to another state. Seems like they shouldve just got programming certifications instead, I’m not a techie. If their idea is to getting into development and research, like stem, it’s extremely difficult to get into.
Why would they need more staff if they plan on developing it in a closed source manner now?
