Why would they when the class is full of dropouts who, generously, have a 0 percent chance of going "hey, y'know what, that's actually kinda cool! I'm going to change my mind about LLMs being useless" and a 100% chance of going "ur project is total shit and you should feel bad".
The people you call "dropouts" have written 100% of the software that people actually use and actually keeps the real world running, so maybe you shouldn't write them off.
