If all students did a general strike for a year, it would immediately force change. Tuition is absurdly expensive, even though it’s cheaper to educate people than ever before due to technology.
Phrases like “it symbolizes the increasing role” are something I generally see ChatGPT say. People don’t typically talk like that, even pretentious lunatics on LinkedIn.
This will keep happening as long as humans keep ranking wordy AIs higher than succinct ones. Unfortunately we have this gut instinct to judge long responses as more true than short ones, so we keep making the problem worse.
People talk of potential human flight on planets. Somewhere in the recesses of my mind I still wear my inner 5 year old’s caped Superman pajamas, stressing over how many stairs one must jump from to take flight. So is it possible to flappy bird a flying monkey?
You could likely fly using human power on Titan. It has a 50% denser atmosphere than earth as well as only 14% of the gravity. While that’s not neutrally buoyant, it is enough that if you had some big wings attached to your arms you could generate enough lift to fly by flapping. Comic by XKCD about this topic.
Of course, Titan is also insanely cold, so you’d need a pressure suit, which might throw off the calculation.
This also reminds me of a scene in Arthur C Clarke’s 3001: The Final Odyssey, a relatively less well known sequel to 2001. In this scene there are enormous space elevator towers that house humanity, and in the upper floors where there is low gravity they have a pressurized flight room just for the fun of it.
We have pressurized areas in microgravity today (space stations), which would obviously give you neutral buoyancy. Not a whole lot of room to maneuver around though!
It’s immensely satisfying that we’re entering another era of strikes. As they get more common it’ll trigger a domino effect that will pervade our entire work culture.

Can humans reach near neutral buoyancy in a gas that is safe to breathe and contains adequate oxygen?
