after all of this, if you get an interview video call, they will ask you to do funny things, like put your hand in front of your face or touch your nose or ears to break the AI face filter. it is so normal now that the interviewer doesn't even feel bad about it. they just say, put your hand in front of your face, okay? acting as if they are doing you a favour. the AI powered deepfakes keep ruining everything

@nixCraft What is the purpose of the AI face filter for a candidate?

I have yet to ever be asked this.

@awws @nixCraft Pretending to be someone you're not; appealing to racist stereotypes maybe?

Also maybe submitting 100 resumes, all with different faces, to the same company hoping you'll get the job

@kaito02 @nixCraft The multi resumes thing hadn’t occurred to me though, of course I imagine the stereotypes thing is totally legit for applicants.

I guess I am just kinda shocked at the idea of deep faking an interview in person (in most cases you would assume the jig is up on a con at that point) though I imagine with conditions the way things are, people get pushed to extremes.
