Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

If I ever have to job seek again, I'm probably gonna just hand write my resume on a crumpled piece of notebook paper to make it stand out from the AI generated drivel.

I'm only sort of not joking.

I'm going to do the opposite. I'm going to get the AI to generate my resume and cover letter. If an AI is going to sort out which resumes are 'good' ones, I figure the ones written by an AI are going to be preferred.

That logic is sound, and I certainly can't fault it, but personally, I refuse to use the problem to solve / deal with the problem. Call me stubborn (everyone else does lol), but I will not buy a solution from the same industry that created the problem. At most, I'll let the "AI" fill out the unemployment forms for me lol.

Just feed the job posting straight into the resume generating AI. It's bound to be a good match.

You'd run into a problem pretty quick once you get to the interview stage and they ask about your experience setting up cloud servers on the ISS or serving as an enforcer for the Dali Lama.

I had AI take a stab at revising my resume and it invented all kinds of things that sounded good but I could never back up or bullshit my way through.

I tried using ChatGPT to distill my LinkedIn profile down to a summary paragraph for a marketing resume (what gets included with a RFQ response when a design or engineering form is pursuing a project) and everything it spat out was worse than what I had already written and wasn't happy with. Ultimately I lifted a phrase or two from ChatGPT's output, but it didn't do much to save me time or improve the quality of my copy.

I had the same issue. I couldn't get it to tailor anything to a job. It either just repeated the job requirements without looking at my resume or just spat our resume reformatted. This is the only thing I want Gen-AI to do and it doesn't do it

I'm not saying I wouldn't proofread it.

If you write one half of the GAN to make resumes which always pass their AI screening, that's proof you should be given whatever ML job they have.

[–] SzethFriendOfNimi@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Then train an AI on those and do it again. To distill it to its absolute pure AIssense.
