Let's start up our own AI and have them talk to each other. It seems it doesn't really matter anyway who is talking to whom.

Yeah the obvious counter to this is AI job applicants who can play the numbers game, say what the hiring AI wants to hear and get hired enough times and long enough to grab some pay checks. This is already happening. Get the bot swarm ready.

So wait. I make a deepfake AI as myself. Have it do my interview, get the job, keep the job long enough until they figure out I don't know what the fuck I'm doing?

Any guides out there on how to do this?

Isn’t it obvious which tool you use to give you a guide?

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 10 points 2 weeks ago

Oh damn yo, I didn't think about that

[–] realitista@lemmus.org 5 points 2 weeks ago

This is a new frontier my friend, you have to carve your own path!

My people will call your people...

[–] PixelatedSaturn@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They video you to check if the interview is legit.

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.org 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Nothing a little Video generating llm can't fix I'm sure

[–] PixelatedSaturn@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Possibly yes. Would be a fun project.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Who's "they"? AI can't make legit videos so I doubt they can spot them.

[–] PixelatedSaturn@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I guess they record head movement, eyes and mouth. The instruction was too look at the screen or camera and not look away too much, so I guess they can spot that.

AI bot that generates resume and show up to meetings to talk about what is written in resume. I think you can replace 90% of management and HR with that.
