Maybe it's the mediocre people who are most excited about AI because they see it as equalizing them with more interesting and original people.

What worries me is how it will be harder to differentiate the two now. I don’t want to work with people who just completely delegate their thinking to LLMs all day, but how do you effectively filter them out as an interviewer/interviewee?

Talk to them, without a computer or device as an intermediary. You’ll find out quickly… as they often will have relegated the bulk of their thinking to LLMs.

I've always preferred in person interviews on both sides, but since COVID it's gone out of fashion unfortunately.

I recently hired for a tech position on my team. I ended up hiring an amazing internal applicant. I consider myself lucky. The hiring process has gotten awful on both sides in recent years.

I think it’s more that they can’t recognize the downsides of AI. They work with AI and it’s so smart! And magical! They don’t have the expertise to recognize the problems in its output, and they’re confused by complaints. It looks like stubborn resistance to them, so they turn to evangelism to try to get people to “see the light.” They don’t engage with legitimate criticism because they don’t understand it.

(That and the normal herd of grifters who pile on to every fad.)

I’m going to get this post as a tattoo. Somewhere really visible to maximize its reach- maybe the face.
