   Stanford computer science graduates are discovering their degrees no   
   longer guarantee jobs as AI coding tools now outpace entry-level   
   programmers.   
      
   Tech companies are replacing ten junior developers with just two   
   experienced engineers and an AI agent capable of equivalent productivity.   
      
   Facing a weaker job market, recent graduates are turning to master’s   
   programs, less prestigious employers, and startup ventures to survive.   
      
   A Stanford software engineering degree used to be a golden ticket.   
   Artificial intelligence has devalued it to bronze, recent graduates say.   
      
   The elite students are shocked by the lack of job offers as they   
   finish studies at what is often ranked as the top university in America.   
      
   When they were freshmen, ChatGPT hadn’t yet been released upon the   
   world. Today, AI can code better than most humans.   
      
   Top tech companies just don’t need as many fresh graduates.
