00:00:00.000 30 seconds, one time for the underdog, ignition sequence start.
00:00:07.000 Let me see you put them up, reach the sky, touch the stars up above, cause it's one time
00:00:13.100 for the underdog, one time for the underdog.
00:00:17.260 I'm Patrick Medevi, host of Ayutem, and today we're going to talk about every university's
00:00:21.840 worst nightmare.
00:00:23.240 So recently, Business Insider came out with an article talking about the fact that Apple
00:00:26.380 and Google no longer require a four-year degree.
00:00:28.580 And on top of Apple and Google, you got IBM, Bank of America, Netflix, and many other companies.
00:00:33.720 So think about all these universities that constantly pitch the idea of, hey, Mr. and
00:00:37.860 Mrs. Jones, the reason why you're sending your kid to our school and spending $200,000 because 1.00
00:00:42.580 we have the highest percentage of hiring people at Apple, Google, IBM, B of A. That's why you
00:00:48.000 put your kids through our school because we guarantee a good job.
00:00:51.260 Those days have changed.
00:00:52.160 By the way, it's a pretty scary time right now for universities.
00:00:54.260 They are literally shivering.
00:00:57.200 If what I'm about to talk to you right now actually takes place, things are going to
00:01:01.120 dramatically change with the educational system in the next decade.
00:01:03.900 Let me get right into it.
00:01:05.200 Point number one, speed is every single college and university's worst nightmare.
00:01:12.000 Things are changing so fast right now that everybody's worried.
00:01:16.600 This isn't a good thing for universities and colleges because universities and colleges,
00:01:21.540 think about it this way.
00:01:22.880 If I'm running a company, if I'm running a business, if I'm Google, Apple, IBM, B of A,
00:01:27.940 who do you think finds out first that things are changing faster, that new things are needed?
00:01:33.980 Universities or companies?
00:01:35.280 Who do you think finds out first?
00:01:36.780 First is companies.
00:01:38.200 Then universities find out about it.
00:01:40.460 So who pivots first?
00:01:41.820 They do.
00:01:42.420 So these companies are starting to say, why are we waiting on them to pivot to us while
00:01:47.620 we can pivot, not having to wait for them?
00:01:50.000 They are slowing us down.
00:01:51.180 They're not teaching the stuff we want because they cannot catch up with the current speed
00:01:54.860 that the marketplace is going.
00:01:56.360 These guys are getting killed simply due to speed.
00:01:58.940 Number two, memory is no longer needed.
00:02:01.700 There used to be a time that everybody had that smart uncle.
00:02:04.820 Everybody had that smart cousin, that smart relative.
00:02:07.400 Matter of fact, what does that show?
00:02:08.880 Who wants to be a millionaire? 0.99
00:02:09.860 And there wasn't one of the things was what, 50-50, all these other things, and one of
00:02:14.140 them was what, phone a friend, right, is what it was, and you would call the uncle.
00:02:18.260 Yes, I'd like to phone a friend.
00:02:19.740 Who?
00:02:20.220 Uncle John.
00:02:20.880 He's the smartest person in the world.
00:02:22.580 You'd call Uncle John, Uncle John.
00:02:24.520 You know, hey, who was the 23rd President of the United States?
00:02:28.660 Let me tell you who it is.
00:02:29.680 It's this person, right?
00:02:30.980 That person doesn't exist.
00:02:32.000 A strong memory today no longer is as important as it used to be.
00:02:35.480 Watch this.
00:02:36.660 Hey, Siri, who was the 23rd President of the United States of America?
00:02:40.620 The answer is Benjamin Harrison from March 4th, 1889 to March 4th, 1893.
00:02:47.320 You know the people that are very good at math?
00:02:48.860 Watch this one here.
00:02:49.940 Hey, Siri, what is 27,227 divided by 13?
00:02:55.540 227 divided by 13 is about 17.4615.
00:02:59.640 Can you do it as quickly as Siri does it?
00:03:01.780 Or Google?
00:03:02.920 Or can you do it as fast as Alexa does it? 0.98
00:03:04.520 What happened there?
00:03:05.120 Remember, see, this replaced all the people that have great memories.
00:03:09.180 So you'd go to school because, oh my gosh, you're going to be able to work on this?
00:03:12.820 It doesn't matter anymore because these machines that, by the way, all these machines that you're
00:03:16.400 talking about, all of these machines are enemies to universities today.
00:03:20.180 They are enemies to universities today because that keyboard known memorization anymore, no
00:03:24.860 longer that important today.
00:03:25.860 Number three, computer science degree is obsolete within three years.
00:03:30.880 You get a computer science degree today within three years, it's obsolete.
00:03:33.240 Number four, teachers need to go to school.
00:03:36.060 Not high school graduates need to go to school.
00:03:38.980 Teachers are outdated.
00:03:40.380 Let me explain to you why.
00:03:41.900 If a teacher got his or her degree in 1988, that's an outdated degree of 1988 today.
00:03:48.400 Now, somebody may say, well, all teachers do is they teach what the curriculum is at a university.
00:03:53.720 Well, fine.
00:03:54.500 The curriculum that's being passed on to the teachers is outdated.
00:03:57.360 Let me simplify it for you.
00:03:59.100 Somebody sits there from companies and tells somebody to tell universities that their curriculum
00:04:04.160 is outdated.
00:04:05.060 They go and tell a group to come up with a new curriculum and then they have to get her
00:04:08.360 to provide the state.
00:04:09.480 Then the state has to get her to provide another person. 1.00
00:04:11.500 Then finally leads to the teacher to teach the new curriculum that's already taken 18 months
00:04:15.600 to get approved.
00:04:16.220 That is already outdated.
00:04:18.040 So teachers need to go back to school and learn from the new generation that's coming up
00:04:21.980 on what really today's times are.
00:04:24.740 We send a couple of our guys to Wharton Business School two weeks ago, $12,000, $13,000 a pop.
00:04:31.180 Then they tell me, they say, you know, one of the professors got up and his talk was digital
00:04:34.580 media and this is his opening.
00:04:36.760 Listen, I just want to let everybody know that's here at Wharton Business School.
00:04:39.760 What I'm about to share with you right now about digital media, some of the stuff may
00:04:42.620 be outdated and you guys may know some of the stuff more than I do, but don't judge
00:04:46.340 me.
00:04:46.580 Let me just share with you what I learned today.
00:04:48.160 Wait a minute.
00:04:48.460 Let me get this straight.
00:04:49.440 We are spending $12,000, $13,000 to send them to school for you to teach.
00:04:53.860 Are guys outdated material that you haven't updated yet?
00:04:57.400 Why the hell are we spending money sending people to school for what?
00:05:00.480 What for?
00:05:01.080 Well, it's really about the other students you meet and the people you meet over there.
00:05:05.760 Then I'll send them to YPO and Vistage.
00:05:07.360 Why am I sending them to university to come and meet with you?
00:05:09.600 Complete different times.
00:05:10.500 So companies are starting to realize teachers are outdated because their degree is outdated
00:05:14.060 because the curriculum is outdated and universities are just moving way too slow because speed
00:05:18.140 is their number one enemy.
00:05:19.140 Number five, companies train you to specialize on a skill set.
00:05:24.400 Let me explain this to you.
00:05:26.080 I asked one of our guys today who got an MFA.
00:05:30.360 Okay, it's like a PhD in fine arts, right, is what he got, is what he told me.
00:05:34.780 I asked him a question.
00:05:36.440 I said, let me ask you this.
00:05:38.320 What do you remember you learned from that school when he got your degree?
00:05:41.880 It took you six or eight years.
00:05:42.760 What do you remember from it?
00:05:43.620 He went, oh man, I don't know what to take.
00:05:46.300 I said, I don't know what I remember from it.
00:05:47.640 I said, what did you learn from it that you still use today?
00:05:49.860 Honestly, I don't know.
00:05:51.180 See, companies say they don't have time like that because things are moving so quickly.
00:05:54.660 So companies say, wait a minute, I'm waiting for you to go to school for four years to come
00:05:57.580 to me because you learned about drinks, bartending, ecstasy, drugs, partying, clubbing, hooking
00:06:01.740 up with girls, Tinder, really swipe right, which way do you swipe? 1.00
00:06:04.280 I'm waiting for you to go learn all that stuff.
00:06:06.860 That's culture you bring to my company.
00:06:08.600 I don't have that kind of time.
00:06:09.880 I'd much rather hire you and out of the four years of you going to school, I'm going to create
00:06:14.800 my own programming for you and train you in this one specific area or two, three areas
00:06:19.160 that's going to take me to teach you for three to six months in current times, then I'm fine.
00:06:25.020 I don't need you to know all the other stuff you went to school for.
00:06:27.180 That saves them time.
00:06:28.780 And they're controlling what's being taught to the students and employees that they want.
00:06:32.520 Very simple.
00:06:33.580 Rather than generalizing, companies are starting to realize we'll take charge of specializing
00:06:37.740 because we definitely cannot wait on universities on how slow they move.
00:06:41.060 Next, companies are starting their own universities.
00:06:45.560 Very scary.
00:06:46.560 Let me say this one more time.
00:06:47.760 Companies are starting their own universities.
00:06:50.040 This is so scary, I can't even describe to you.
00:06:52.620 Every college university is going to sit there and say, what do you mean companies are starting
00:06:56.120 their own universities?
00:06:57.180 There's online university.
00:06:58.340 We have it here ourselves.
00:06:59.900 Companies are starting their own campuses.
00:07:02.160 You know, McDonald's has McDonald's University.
00:07:04.220 Every one of these major companies now, they have universities.
00:07:07.280 And guess who their professors are?
00:07:08.720 There are employees who work there, who are touching everything, who are coding everything
00:07:12.260 based on today's times.
00:07:13.640 Not based on 20 years' times, based on today's curriculum.
00:07:17.200 And you're going to university at Google, IBM, you know, all Apple, all of these companies
00:07:22.780 and their professors are teaching you what is needed today.
00:07:25.900 An edge over all the other universities out there.
00:07:28.620 Last but not least, number seven.
00:07:30.100 You know what's number seven?
00:07:30.860 Very simple.
00:07:32.440 These big companies, by doing this, they're controlling the narrative.
00:07:35.700 Look, things changed.
00:07:36.400 They are controlling what they are brainwashing into their employees.
00:07:40.400 When you go into a new school, people say, brainwashing is a bad word.
00:07:43.000 When you go to college, what do they do?
00:07:44.520 Our university.
00:07:45.420 Let me tell you what we did.
00:07:46.240 We went this.
00:07:46.660 This person went here.
00:07:47.320 That person went here.
00:07:48.160 And they get brainwashed about how amazing the university is.
00:07:50.580 Then you become a booster and you're going to give contributing money for the rest of
00:07:53.080 the career of that school.
00:07:53.780 That's what happens, right?
00:07:54.480 Very simple.
00:07:55.320 Simple protocol.
00:07:56.560 These companies are saying, wait a minute.
00:07:58.220 If we're letting these kids be brainwashed about school, why don't we brainwash them on how great
00:08:02.020 of a company we are?
00:08:02.900 We've actually made an impact.
00:08:04.620 We've actually made new patents.
00:08:05.840 We've actually made products.
00:08:06.860 We've actually created jobs.
00:08:08.220 We actually changed the world.
00:08:10.060 Here's who we are.
00:08:11.180 Oh my gosh, I love this company.
00:08:13.240 They're brainwashing early about how special of a company they are because they're doing
00:08:16.020 the same exact thing all these major universities doing nationwide.
00:08:19.340 So watch this.
00:08:19.860 All this stuff I'm talking about is purely speed becomes the number one enemy of every single
00:08:25.980 college and university.
00:08:27.020 Watch this.
00:08:27.440 You're 1991.
00:08:28.160 All of us bought one of these things if you had it.
00:08:32.580 If you wanted an all-weather personal stereo, it was 1188.
00:08:36.880 AM, FM, clock, radio, 1388.
00:08:39.460 In-ear stereo phone, 788.
00:08:41.460 Micro-thin calculator, 488.
00:08:43.540 Tandy 1000T03, 1,599.
00:08:46.700 That's a computer.
00:08:47.200 VHS camcorder, 799.
00:08:49.800 Mobile cellular phone, 199.
00:08:51.820 Mobile CB, 4999.
00:08:53.320 20 memory speed dial phone, 2999.
00:08:56.040 Deluxe portable CD player, 159.99.
00:08:59.140 10 channel desktop scanner, 99.99.
00:09:02.780 Phone answering machine, 49.99.
00:09:04.840 Handheld cassette tape recorder, you had 2999.
00:09:08.540 Total $3,054.
00:09:10.740 And today's money is $5,100.
00:09:12.340 You know what that is?
00:09:13.180 Right here.
00:09:14.180 In one.
00:09:15.460 All of this, in one.
00:09:17.160 Everything I told you, half the stuff you don't even know what it means, it's in this
00:09:20.260 thing right here.
00:09:20.920 This one phone.
00:09:21.900 Has all of it.
00:09:23.660 Colleges and universities wake up every morning wishing this was never invented.
00:09:27.420 This is their enemy.
00:09:28.680 And these guys can no longer wait.
00:09:30.740 Because their enemy is speed.
00:09:32.020 And they cannot wait on the speed that colleges and universities have, which is very slow.
00:09:38.940 Slow.
00:09:39.620 So slow.
00:09:40.760 They have to control the narrative.
00:09:41.860 They have to take charge.
00:09:43.480 And the whole part about taking charge is they're sitting there saying, wait a minute.
00:09:46.160 I'm sending these kids to school for hoping they get some hard skills.
00:09:49.560 Hard skill is a language programming, coding.
00:09:52.160 You know, maybe they know how to do, you know, some storage system, some things like that.
00:09:55.660 That's hard skills.
00:09:56.920 And they're starting to realize, I'm better off getting people who have some good soft
00:10:00.380 skills.
00:10:01.460 Problem solving, EQ, attitude, critical thinking, teamwork.
00:10:04.140 A lot of these things you can pick up if you played high school sports in high school.
00:10:09.920 So a high school athlete or somebody that was involved in different kind of groups, they
00:10:14.660 already have some of this stuff.
00:10:15.700 Why do I need somebody to go to a 40 degree?
00:10:17.240 I don't need them.
00:10:18.120 Give it to us at 18.
00:10:19.400 Give it to us at 19.
00:10:20.420 We'll train them.
00:10:21.600 Give it to us.
00:10:22.440 We're okay.
00:10:23.180 We'll have our own system.
00:10:24.060 Thanks, everybody, for listening.
