I'd like to think that tools and systems will evolve for better matching resulting in fewer needlessly-repetitive, low-knowledge-share interview processes. However, this is a really difficult problem to solve because the system can be gamed by any party involved.

And because we're used to over-promising systems being gameable, I think there is a distrust of adopting new ways which is a reinforcement of doing things the same old way.

I think change in this area is just a tough boulder to push uphill so I kind of expect "same old" in a period where that could become even more painful with the wrench of AI changing the nature of a lot of jobs and career paths. I'm of the mindset that there isn't an obvious "net job loss" that will occur, but titles and expectations will shift and until they "settle", things could be even more painful in the meantime.
