        @MLE_online having done a little bit of recruiting at in-person job fairs - it's amazing how much someone can impress/unimpress you in a very short interaction time. Putting unconscious bias (which is totally a thing) to the side, it has so much value vs. other methods.

          A lot of people tend to disagree with me when I say things like this on here, but I do think that if AI pollutes the internet so much that we are forced to spend more time interacting with each other face-to-face, it will be a good thing. Less online homework, less online hiring, less staring at youtube videos

                @MLE_online I am pretty sure this is happening, the AI polluted resumes and all that. The question is which companies realize this first and react intelligently.

                  @MLE_online AI is like the highway billboard advertising signs that First Lady Ladybird Johnson worked to ban in the 1960s.

                    @bouriquet it's worse than that. you know billboards are billboards. billboards are an eyesore, but they don't infiltrate everything. AI is like a poo in the water supply

                          @MLE_online Can somewhat confirm, from the Ohlone College job fair (had to attend when I was on unemployment).

                            @MLE_online I would REALLY like people to realtime work with, and if I didn't know better, I would swear I'm the only person in the world. It's fun to work together on a project with others

                                  Oh I really hope so, because it has also completely disrupted getting hired.

                                      @MLE_online @ai6yr Their HR dept is probably using gen-AI to make the hiring decisions based on AI slop generated by the candidates themselves using gen-AI

                                        @MLE_online

                                        I'm not pro-ai, but

                                        These the companies complaining about the quality of the online applications,,, are they the same companies posting ghost job openings that are dead end time wasters for real folks looking for jobs?

                                        (I'm not blaming the messenger. Let's be catty together.)
