The distinction between theoretical computer science and programming as a praxis for outcome seems to be missing. We have as many theoreticians as we seem to need, for the rate of change in computer science.

Prompt writing is going to need teaching. Logicians, semantic specialists, computer sciences people will all be needed.

I don't see LLM replacing VLSI design engineers, and nobody has yet said circuit design, fpga is being leveraged.

Theoretical CS is not bursting at all. It's better than ever. The same with Mathematical Logic.

I can't help but think this is a rather lazy article. It starts by saying enrolments have slightly increased, but then says, paraphrasing, "word on the street is that it could go down by 25%".

Really, this article should compare enrolments across all faculties across all ivy league universities. One can't help but wonder whether Journalism degrees are seeing a much bigger drop in enrolments.
