    Honest and good work to figure out jailbreaks for ai interviewers. Even more honest and good to never accept these interviews because fuck that 100%

    Eventually all of this slop will pass when they realize it does not work. But for a couple years everyone is gonna have to put up with companies trying bullshit like this until the metrics show that it doesn’t do anything for the cash.

      I assume they haven’t caught on because they think it will work soon due to not understanding the current problems are fundamental issues with the current offerings.

      The current problems cannot be fixed by scaling or using different training data, the core design introduces hallucinations errors. How many decades will it take for companies to catch on and be willing to admit it though?

        Add to this the cost fallacy, where they have put so much money to embrace the “AI” bullshit.

        And on the top of that, did you ever see a CEO or someone in power admitting their fault and say: “yeah guys, I was wrong all along, let’s fix this, I am sorry.”

        They will double down on that until bankruptcy and blame the incels, the gamers, the work force, the weather but not themselves.

        Also consider that the same idiot decision makers have been happily applying Factory-management methods to knowledge workers for decades without noticing how badly that works.

      Companies need a way to pick any hire out of a large set of applicants. They don’t care if it’s a good hire. They don’t even care if the hire will burn down the building. This same thing could be accomplished with a small script that points to a random applicant and evaluates if that one lied on their resume. That’s it.

      But if you call it “AI”, dumbfuck business majors will buy your magic beans.

      I sort of assumed that would be the case with cryptocurrencies too considering it is 100% scams but so far I am still waiting. And AI has far higher chances to convince idiot CEOs than cryptocurrencies ever had.

    These have been a thing for a while but it wasn’t an LLM it was a video analyzer. I did exactly one interview like that 5 years ago and gave up halfway through the second video they wanted me to send in because the job sucked ass anyway in a shitty part of the country and I realized I was going to be miserable working there even if I got the job degrading myself like that. I ask terrified of getting laid off and having to enter the job market right now and deal with all these new ways companies are coming up with to degrade potential hires and waste their time

      Don’t worry. You won’t even get contacted about jobs in this market. I was doing identical work for a competitor of the company I interviewed with. I was a manager. I was a trainer. I didn’t even get to the in person’s. I was up against 300 other people. You have no chance in this market.

    Wait. I thought we were going to be replaced with robots. What do they need AI for? To interview the robots?

    Cool waiting for candidate AI so they can speak with each other and lie to get hired.

    Lots of people in this thread basically saying “I will voluntarily yield those job opportunities to people willing to use new technology.”

    Thanks, I guess?

      A job at a company that won’t respect your basic humanity isn’t worth having. If you’d rather willingly step into that trap than proceed with whatever you’re doing, or go with other options, are you okay? Like if this sounds like an opportunity and not a giant red flag, I wish there was something I could offer to help you.

      tbh anyone who’s willing to degrade themselves for a job like that isn’t going to have the same work ethic of someone who refuses to debase themselves to the whims of a micromanaging employer.

      if you think you’re in that group, I’m happy to let you work for a shitty company while I go work somewhere that at least pretends like my contributions matter to the field.

      I may be selling my soul to a company that secretly doesn’t care if I live or die but at least I can sleep at night with the belief that my contributions matter to someone within the company.

      unlike at these shithole companies that don’t even care enough about their culture or other employees quality enough to put the effort out to find the best candidate for the role.
