Carnegie Mellon University computer scientist Nihar Shah believes that a model accepting the premises provided by the user is not necessarily a fatal problem and may be a design choice, provided that the user has done their homework.
Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) announced a partnership to jointly cultivate early-career software engineers.
CMU has long had a teaching tradition in software engineering education based on real codebases and team projects, while Microsoft holds frontline data on large-scale code review and AI programming assistants.
Another possible form of implementation is deeply binding mentorship with internship channels, with Microsoft engineers participating as part-time mentors in student project reviews, and outstanding performers entering a fast track directly to internships or campus recruitment.
One possible form of implementing university-industry collaboration is joint courses and practical training projects that bring Microsoft's real business scenarios or desensitized datasets into CMU's software engineering courses.
On Hacker News, the news about Microsoft and CMU collaborating to cultivate early-career software engineers sparked a small-scale discussion.
Carnegie Mellon University researcher Michal Luria, tech policy expert Aliya Bhatia, and scholar Danah Boyd co-authored a piece pointing out that children are easily bypassing social media bans, and that this itself is not a problem that needs to be solved.
Cognitive Tutor, developed by Carnegie Mellon University, is a classic representative of intelligent tutoring systems and has undergone relatively large-scale classroom validation in the field of mathematics.
Carnegie Mellon University teaching professor Michael Hilton observed that roughly between the fall 2025 and spring 2026 semesters, AI was able to complete all the assignments in his senior software engineering course in one shot, with students only needing to copy and paste to finish.
Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University are collaborating on a program called PRAISE (Preceptorship for AI-accelerated Software Engineering), cultivating new software engineering talent for the AI era through a mentorship model rather than the traditional internship model.
