And how exactly is that going to help improve the hiring situation? It's already very inhumane and getting worse.

Are applicants just supposed to sit and roll their thumbs waiting for the right AI to have the right hallucinations?

I don't get the excitement for applying this crap to each and every aspect of our lives. What about the human experience?

If LLMs are going to get used to filter candidates out of jobs (they will, lets be real) then it is going to happen regardless of if a candidate makes a tool that explicitly provides their data in an LLM friendly format or not.

Resumes are already being run through a machine. We know what the next generation of machine looks like, so now as candidates we can put our best foot forward.

Try thinking about life experiences and thoughts as a series of lottery tickets or futures contracts

The really bright people are doing hype and bleeding edge things like this. Getting lots of notice, trending on HN (and probably LinkedIn), etc.

Everyone else? Yeah.

I don't mean this as a diss. This is just the meta. I got a really good job doing exactly this sort of thing. And it worked marvels for fundraising too.

I absolutely know not everyone has time or patience for this bullshit meta game. But networking and distribution are kind of like that.

tl;dr - If you trend on HN, LinkedIn, etc., you're already winning the hiring game.

Good for you, and him, for a while at least.

What about the world?

Being good at this bullshit doesn't imply any kind of competence in anything that matters.

The tech industry is increasingly performative.

It's nothing new. All of human life throughout time has been.

Bullshit, life has been gradually becoming more and more artificial and divorced from physical reality for a while now, and the speed seems to be increasing.
