I am just complaining. my professors are constantly like, "you should use AI to research this! ask AI how to do this in excel! employers are going to expect you to use AI to work more efficiently!"

they at least acknowledge that it's inaccurate and you always have to check it, but there's no mention of ethical implications, environmental impacts, the danger this bubble poses to the economy.

I hate it so, so much. I had a professor tell me that I can write, which is good, so I can prompt AI, which I didn't find especially flattering as far as "compliments" go.

I'm just so tired of it, guys.

MMW; there's going to be an alternative market for people with skills without AI, and who can prove they got their credentials the oldfashioned way, as another poster said, after the bubble pops.

Resume:

  • Types 100 WMP.

  • I can write an email all by myself.

100 is quite good and far above average 👍

"WMP" is not exactly the delivery you want if you're bragging about typing, unless you're specifically trying to prove your error rate in the same claim.

You were supposed to just laugh ☹️

Damn, appears I've whooshed it

Actually I think you maybe made it funnier

It sucks that there is no way for me to prove that. They will see I got into college during peak of AI hype and promptly throw my application into the trash.

And by "they" I mean the AI recruiters worst part.

if it wasnt bad prior to pandemic, they had software that did the same"just look keywords or deny certain amount of applicants" into the trash, AI probably does it at a higher rate.

I foresee a monstrous backlash to AI use coming fairly soon. Once CEOs start getting reports on their spend vs. productivity, they gonna be big mad. Also, many are going to be left without functioning products after the crash.

They're being patient for now. Big initiatives take time to start working smoothly and moving the ship. But CEOs are only going to take so many quarters of poor AI performance before they say "Fuck all this noise!"

I honestly think the AI crash is going to cause financial ruin far beyond what we saw in 2008. AI is going to be poison after that.

Hadn't thought on the employee value aspect! Combined with what I'm saying, yeah, employers are not going to look favorably at resumes touting high AI use.

the old fashioned way, job listing already using something similar(other resume screening software) to screen applicants, its just slightly less worst than using AI to screen out resumes. plus employers also steal peoples resume to train thier AI/software to screen out more people.
