I, Spambot, speaking as a Spam and as a Bot, have to admit that I don't really gave a fuck or two about AI, and I also think it will wind down with time. In the meantime, there will be some interesting encounters.
I applied something of mine to the one of official governmental agencies. There was a lot of paperwork that I half-assed in the last minute, but I had to apply it because... reasons. About month after the deadline, an official representative asked every applicant: do we agree that this year, our applications are reviewed by an AI (along with the committee). Depending on our answers, committee will decide should their points be added to the AI points deciding the value of our applications. I said, I wanted only committee to review them and expected most of applicants will do the same. Alas, more than 65% wanted both committee and AI points (and I believe there was small percentage that wanted only AI points, committee excluded). Bottom line, my answer, where I wanted for only human approach was in minority (later we found out that AI was actually ChatGPT lol). OK, it wasn't a big deal, I see that the governmental agency is trying to jump on the AI-hype-train, applicants are probably afraid that human only committee could be biased and so on, we had to answer a short survey about our satisfaction and so on.
But, yesterday I was contacted from the person who organized everything and she asked me why was I so against AI (I must've come across as pissed of against AI in the survey). There were a lot of reasons, but bottom line was this: if they continue like this, next year I won't give a fuck about my application. Instead, I'll use ChatGPT to write it, and I'll get 100% of points. More so, I know that the rest of my colleagues are not interested/knowable about ChatCPT so they'll ask me about it, meaning: in two years they'll have a ton of application that fulfill all conditions and at the same time have no fucking substance behind them. There was a long "Oooooooh" when I said that with the promise that they'll keep that in mind for next year. I mean, they won't. But it was funny.
