During the University of Arizona's 162nd commencement ceremony, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt was repeatedly booed by students when he spoke about artificial intelligence. The graduates, concerned about the potential for AI to disrupt the job market and automate entry-level positions, reacted hostily to his remarks. Despite acknowledging these fears as "rational" and identifying social media algorithms as a factor in increasing anxiety, Schmidt encouraged the graduates to take an active role in shaping the future of AI rather than fearing its inevitability.
