I work in PR for a university, and for most of my time here, it's been about promoting cool and interesting research taking place on campus.

But in the last year or so, it seems like almost everyone at all levels of management has caught hype psychosis. Anything that mentions quantum or AI is the most important and critical thing. We have to stop doing whatever else we're doing and promote the latest thing that has some connection to quantum or AI, no matter how transparently dumb or craven it is.

This sucks. I want to go back to writing about jellyfish being able to cure their own cancer and shit.
