The remark reportedly that free the boos: "Change is exciting. And let’s face it: change can be daunting. The rise of artificial intelligence is the next Industrial Revolution.” It's surprising to me how something that's about as neutral as you can get about something that everyone, especially fresh grads, should be thinking actively about, simply draws this knee-jerk reaction. Or maybe even the Industrial Revolution is such a reviled concept these days, that she may as well have said, "This will change history the way the destruction of WWII did," and the reaction may have been less negative.
