GitHub Copilot X: GitHub Copilot is evolving to bring chat and voice interfaces, support pull requests, answer questions on docs, and adopt OpenAI’s GPT-4 for a more personalized developer experience. — “...less than two years since its launch, GitHub Copilot is already writing 46% of code and helps developers code up to 55% faster...Our R&D team at GitHub Next has been working to move past the editor and evolve GitHub Copilot into a readily accessible AI assistant throughout the entire development lifecycle. This is GitHub Copilot X—our vision for the future of AI-powered software development.”
Yes. It doesn't seem that universities "indoctrinating" students is accurate. Which also makes sense based on personal experience. Think back to high school? Whose opinion did you care about? Your teachers? Or your fellow students?
So how did wokeness happen? It seems to be a combination of three groups: admissions committee's, cultural influencers in elite institutions like the media, and wannabee elites among high school students.
The elites in the media send signals about what values (read: liberal values) are high-status. Admission committees then select students based on how well they seem to conform to those high-status values. Status-striving high school students then subconsciously modify their political beliefs, extracurriculars, and essays to reflect liberal values. Admission committee's then preferentially select the most liberal students who apply, who then become the new elite. Rinse and repeat.
At no point in the process is there anything resembling indoctrination from faculty to the students.
