Interview

HR: So .. tell us .. where do you see our AI acting in 5 years?

ME: Doing your job minus the stupid questions.

*silence*

Boss breaks out in laughter.
"Oh boy you're hired"

Serious answer they joking about it. I tell you humans are no good nowadays.

I really hope that happened

Yeah, if you're a dev AND can make execs/recruiters laugh, that's usually a guaranteed hire.

That HR persons name?
Steve Jobs.

And everyone stood up and clapped

And then they all clapped 😂

@disco Why Steve Jobs? Am I missing something?

I remember talking to HR for a video screening for a job. I started talking about running an openstack cloud across multiple sites over VPN, not realizing the person wasn't tech savvy at all. I had to explain was AWS was to her later in the interview. I never got a second call.

Then the boss' 5 year old daughter said: "I think HR is misusing the AI term but we can't expect everyone to be tech savvy"
And everyone clapped.
