I kinda wonder about this because I get asked about ai at interviews and I tend to give sort of a balance perspective. Saying they have uses but have limitations and thier output has to be reviewed and checked. I keep wondering if that is sinking me for positions among my other buerocratic red flags.
It's fairly likely that if they're asking about "AI" hoping for a cheerleader response, they won't be looking to pay you what the position is worth.
yeah I kinda feel that also.
I imagine it varies. I don't ask about AI usage in interviews but if I did I would prefer a balanced answer.
Skepticism tells me you're not going to try to vibe code something important or try to install unapproved models. Not being completely anti-AI in the interview tells me you're not going to insult a manager when they're being stupid.
Yeah I just wonder if they are looking for gung ho ai all the way responses. I got an interview today and its been ages since I actually had one that was not a head hunter meet and greet.
