\n\t\t\t\tI Sent an AI to My Job Interview. So Did the Company.\t\t\t<\/p>\n
After generations of young job seekers bringing their parents to interviews, maybe logging in their own \u201chelicopter AI\u201d is the trend\u2019s final form.<\/p>\n
\u201cPat, it is a pleasure to meet you,\u201d the Victor AI said after thanking Graham for teeing it up for an opening statement. \u201cWe are both thrilled about the marketing manager opening at Brightwell Home. Graham is an absolute powerhouse in the marketing world and I cannot wait to dive into why he is the perfect fit for your team.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a pleasure to meet you two,\u201d the company\u2019s AI responded. \u201cYou are incredibly impressive and easy to work with, Victor.\u201d<\/p>\n
At one point, Graham had to step in to correct his AI, telling Victor that it was \u201cbeing a little too kind,\u201d clarifying that he was a marketing coordinator, not manager with direct reports.<\/p>\n
After a confusing back and forth, with the two AI models constantly trying to talk over each other, Graham told his AI to sidebar.<\/p>\n
\u201cUm, I love what you\u2019re doing, man,\u201d Graham told his assistant. \u201cYou\u2019re making me look really good, but I think you\u2019re making me look a little bit too good.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI I think you can probably turn up the volume on my experience like ten percent, but right now, you\u2019re just outright fabricating things that aren\u2019t true,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The Victor AI even tried to throw Graham under the bus by saying that he was willing to take a salary of just $60,000.<\/p>\n
\u201cHold on. Hold on,\u201d Graham said, sounding frustrated. \u201cLet\u2019s not move to next steps at at $60,000. Pat. Pat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Towards the end of the video, Graham briefly departs the call and leaves the two AI models to negotiate his salary without his presence.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are moving forward with the 85 to $95,000 range,\u201d the company\u2019s AI ultimately told him after he returned, to his horror.<\/p>\n
While it\u2019s an amusing watch, the video perfectly skewers the potential horror scenarios of a not so distant future where we need an AI chatbot to negotiate on our behalf.<\/p>\n
It also highlights the sheer disregard with which companies are treating prospective hires. By outsourcing the interview process \u2014 or even just early applicant screening \u2014 to AI, they\u2019re sending a clear signal that they care little about identifying the right candidate for the job.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a dystopian vision in which the intrinsic value of human labor continues to be undermined as companies push for AI agents designed to assume our identities. As Graham\u2019s latest experiment goes to show, we might be better off representing ourselves after all.<\/p>\n
