In a cringe-worthy moment that has left many in the audience stunned, a college graduation ceremony descended into chaos as an artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to read out student names spectacularly failed. The AI, intended to streamline the process and free up human staff to focus on other tasks, instead faltered miserably, leaving students and faculty members in a state of confusion. As the AI struggled to pronounce names correctly, the crowd erupted into a mixture of boos and jeers, with some even chanting "read the cards!" in exasperation. The embarrassing incident raises questions about the reliability and practicality of relying on AI in high-pressure situations like graduation ceremonies.
