Hey guys! π The AI revolution is going to some really weird places, but this story that went viral today is just absolute comedy.
We all know companies are starting to use AI HR agents to conduct basic phone interviews. Well, an engineer decided he did not want to do the phone interview himself, so he set up his own personal AI voice agent to take the call for him.
What happened next?
His AI bot picked up the phone, and the company's AI HR bot started talking to it. Both of them were programmed to be super polite and negotiate the best salary.
The result? The two AI bots got stuck in an infinite loop of corporate jargon for literally 4 hours straight!
They just kept saying things like, "We offer a dynamic synergy environment," and the other bot would reply, "My client is looking to leverage his paradigm-shifting skills for a competitive package." They never actually agreed on a number. They just complimented each other and talked in circles until the company's server timed out!
The best part is that the engineer woke up to a massive API cloud bill just for his bot to have a 4-hour fake conversation with a robot HR.
If this is the future of job hunting, I think we are in for a very funny ride. Have you ever used an AI to write your resume or email a recruiter? Let's discuss below! π
