A friend used ChatGPT to create a poem for me one year ago. The poem was great. Though I had hoped he wrote it on his own. I’m no fan of outsourcing your intelligence.
AI or Artificial Intelligence is here to stay. It generates “hallucinations” that is false information and contains biases.
Though I’m no fan of AI at the end of this blog entry I’ll link to a Vault article on AI software you can use to create a resume. A person I interacted with 2 years ago used AI to create a resume that got them a job interview. They were offered the job.
When using AI to create a resume this way you should absolutely customize the resume from there instead of merely doing a cut-and-paste of what the AI software spits out.
Using AI is taking us in the wrong direction relying solely on using interviews instead of requiring candidates to give a work sample or do one-day trial work.
The risk I see is that using AI job seekers will be creating identical resumes when applying for jobs.
AI is being co-opted in every business arena. It can produce misleading images and violate copyright. Students are using AI to create term papers.

It’s a slippery slope we’re going down with the extended lack of using our own originality and creativity to innovate new ideas, products, and services.
I’m not against the careful and judicious use of AI to create content and decide what to do. It’s just that the industry should be regulated precisely because of the existence of AI=generated bias and false information.
