So it's a double foolery for the underpriviledged ones: believing that ALL university degrees have value on the job market + believing that getting these degrees with IA overreliance, without developping genuine skills, can secure you a permanent interesting job.

As a uni professor it's hard for me to say that unviersites degrees are intellectually worthless but I agree with you that it's always a good thing to expose crerdntialism. Now the sad thing is that most of these non Ivy league social sc degrees were already not having much value on the job market.

I would rather say that the wicked IA impact on honest students/workers is that they have to demonstrate that their work comes from genuine personal thinking much more than what we had to.
