    As funny as it is when presented that way, it does make sense. After all if a company is using AI wherever possible, and yet hiring a person, then presumably it’s because they want that person to do things they don’t want to be using AI for.

      OTOH assuming the hiring process is competent at assessing job fitness, an applicant who gets through it using AI should be fit to do the job with AI.

          And…?

          Yes, developing AI is different from all sorts of things - that’s why an AI dev hiring process would assess competence at AI dev. If a candidate demonstrated competence doing that job, using tools they’ll have available at work, what’s the problem?

          I don’t know why people simply say, “Thing A is different from Thing B,” as if it’s a mic drop.

            Tell me you know absolutely nothing about the work we actually do without telling me huh.

            The top level comment is about AI development not AI use.

            Speaking as someone with more than a decade of experience developing AI: prompting ChatGPT to write your cover letter for an AI dev role is at best neutral to your ability to perform the job, at worst a sign of total incompetence.

            It’s fucking funny to me how every two years people dream up new and novel ideas of what it is we do based off nothing but vibes lmao
