Somebody should create a AI interviewer for VC funding. VCs are swamped with so many funding requests. All the founders should first convince AI why they need funding.

I had the same thought.

The CEO of Braintrust, a company that offers AI interviewers, is quoted as saying “The truth is, if you want a job, you’re gonna go through this thing,”. Let's see how they react to the founding of 'Trainbust', a company offering AI interviewees to respond to AI interviewers. The truth is, if they want to use AI interviewers, they’re gonna have to go through this thing.

The real irony will be that both the services will be using OpenAI speech to speech model.

Can I let my AI chat bot do the interview for me? I want to filter out all of the crap companies before I commit my time to actually talking to them.

Developer interviews are already kinda AI interviews based on take home hackerrank interviews.

You’d think that but I remember one interview where the candidate was highly recommended and they had never communicated with a stakeholder. A PM had always done that. They had never talked with a user. Ever. They had 15 years of experience.

It’s funny the stuff I assume is really easy and common and keep getting reminded that the world is really diverse.

I don't think you will ever talk to a user if you work in a big company. There are so many layers of abstraction.

Not that someone wouldn't try, but wtf would advertisements even be in ai chats but a giant distraction and interruption? (Moreso than web or video now). They are usually a call to link to something else.

I think it will be really sneaky. You ask for information and LLM will say "<product> does what you want and it is also cheaper with these additional features."

The real revenue opportunity for OpenAI is advertising. More than 25% of Americans use ChatGPT instead of Google, and OpenAI has already announced partnership with Shopify to directly list products. But for now they are focused on market share.

Google does not really own the complete AI stack, NVDA is extracting a lot of the value there.

Google has two other impediments to doing what ChatGPT does.

Googles entire business model is built around search. They have augmented search with AI, but that is not the same as completely disrupting an incredibly profitable business model with an unprofitable and unproven business model.

Also... Americans are in the habit of going to ChatGPT now for AI. When you think of AI, you now think of ChatGPT first.

The real risk is we are at the tail end of a long economic boom cycle, OpenAI is incredibly dependent on additional funding rounds, and if we recess access to that funding gets cut off.

I would argue that Google is even better place for advertising. All they need to do is enable advertising in Gemini. There is a whole ecosystem already in place for Google advertising.
