I get the idea, the motivation behind it, but as an employee, the first time I get an AI-generated performance report on myself is the day I change company. Can't be bothered to offer a real, human experience when providing performance reviews ? Then I won't bother to work.

HR is one of the area where chatbots should NOT be reigning. It is literally named "Human Resources".

I don’t understand the cynicism. Are you also the type to say “can’t be bothered to properly indent your code? Forget formatters; you should be out of work.”

If you check out the actual website you’ll see that you’re still expected to fill in all the correct information. It just translated what you write (ie point form) into a different format.

I find this tool very useful because I’m expected to write half a dozen peer performance reviews for my colleagues each quarter. This takes it from “Mark gives good code reviews, but is slow to respond to my questions and shows up late to meetings” to a professional review.

Then just send the point form. You'll gain time by not having to write the word stuffing, they'll gain time by not having to read the word stuffing.

This is just adding noise to the signal, if you don't even bother to write the text why would someone bother reading it ? It's annoying for everyone and doesn't add any value

I (as an engineer) don't care if my colleagues send me point form.

However, HR and managers are the ones who made the decision that I have to write these lengthy reviews. How do you propose I proceed?

I could either:

- Tell my manager / HR that I'm not willing to do that

- Find a different job

- Or just put up with it, and use tools like this to make it more bearable.

Thank you for taking the time KMnO4. We went through a couple of iterations on how to position this thing. It's not perfect for sure, but we don't want it to be "cheating on this important feedback". Especially in the manager to report relationship. But quality writing is hard, so if this thing can help you get to 90% of the way it's a good tradeoff I think.

What if they don't tell you?

The 'human' in HR refers to the resources being managed, not the people doing the managing.

Hey Uberzi, I'm one of the devs behind DeepReview.

Thanks for having a look and expressing your opinion. We're definitely in the pre-PMF phase so any honest feedback helps.

Do you reckon help with writing cover letters, referrals or parts of a CV might be a better fit in your eyes?

I wouldn’t worry about their comment. Uberzi doesn’t have a single positive comment on HN.

The emphasis there is on "Resources", not human. Department of administration of the resources of the human kind.
