Ah, so you prefer being asked "where do you see yourself in 5 years?", and regurgitating the text generated by ChatGPT instead?

Alternatively, as I replied in the sibling thread, do you prefer to be handed a difficult take home task that is expected to take 2 weeks to complete?

I think I can live with the first, but I'd be insane to work 80 hours on a task just for a small chance to get a job.

“Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” is asking a perfectly reasonable question about what if anything you’re working towards. If you think regurgitating something from ChatGPT is appropriate, I can see why you might prefer more limited interviews.
