我与AI面试官的较量

I was interviewed by an AI bot for a job

作为一名科技记者,Hayden Field亲身体验了三种AI面试官的面试过程。尽管部分平台体验较为自然,但他认为AI面试工具的弊端远大于益处。AI缺乏对话的流畅性和情境感,可能带来偏见,还可能浪费求职者的时间。更重要的是,这种缺乏人性化的面试方式,反映出未来雇主对求职者的不重视,这是否会影响未来的工作体验?

I was interviewed by an AI bot for a job

I couldn’t get past the uncanny valley of looking at an AI avatar listening to my answers.

Millions of people are on the job hunt right now — and for many people, landing a job in the AI era feels more intimidating than ever. That’s why the onset of AI avatars running your job interview via one-on-one video call, asking you questions, and analyzing how well you respond has generated a lot of discussion — and controversy.

There are a handful of companies behind the rise in AI-led interviews, like CodeSignal, Humanly, Eightfold, and more. The creators of these AI tools say the benefit is that it allows companies to hear from virtually everyone who applies for a certain role instead of just a small subset, at least when it comes to an intro interview. Some claim that these tools operate with significantly less bias and prejudice because they’re simply analyzing your responses rather than other video cues. But as we’ve covered again and again, a bias-free AI system is an impossible-to-achieve standard, since models are trained on large swaths of the internet, which contain sexism, racism, and other biases.

For this video, I tried out three AI interviewers myself for a range of jobs, either ones created for the exercise based on my current position or real jobs currently listed at Vox Media. Some of the platforms felt a lot more natural than others, but no matter what, each time I wished I was talking to a human instead. Watch the video to check out my experience.
