It isn’t only grad students who should be worried about Deep Research:
Students cannot be expected to continue paying for information transfer that AGI provides freely. Instead, they will pay to learn from faculty whose expertise surpasses AI, offering mentorship, inspiration, and meaningful access to AGI-era careers and networks. Universities that cannot deliver this specific value will not survive. This isn’t a mere transformation but a brutal winnowing—most institutions will fail, and those that remain will be unrecognizable by today’s standards.
