Algorithmic Monocultures in Hiring

The reason you're not getting interviews is because the HR department is using a biased 'ai' to process your resume,

which caches the result of processing your resume to fuck you over at all the other companies you apply to as well.

AI is harmful.

this becomes a surprisingly nuanced question very quickly if you're the kind of latin nerd who knows the etymology of "valve"

hot take: a company that uses LLMs has no cause to demand a programming test of their new hires.

like that fucking mythos thing.

if you hired a couple thousand analysts and had them running AFL on those codebases, they'd have found far more vulns - and with qualified analyst intervention, been able to actually submit patches.

but instead they did a halfassed slapdash publicity stunt by automating the process and using their enormous server farm to do the churning.

and they can eat flaming shit.

I'm in infosec; we've had -constant- fucking "zomg teh haxx0rz will pwn all ur dataz!!!!" for literally decades.

This is more of the same.

my suspicion is that all the 'dire warnings' are part of a hype cycle to boost the stock price in advance of the IPO, so that the investors can cash out fast before everyone realizes just how much of a scam their shit is.

biggest fucking pump and dump on the planet.

the metaphor of the Ars Goetia works a little bit too well for dealing with LLM-related security concepts, even if the beings summoned are named 'claude' instead of 'botis'
