I've long been planning to do this in retirement, but with real people. Just my fucking luck if screening interviews get replaced by AI before then. NOW what the fuck will I do for a hobby?

I remember watching 2001: A Space Odyssey and thinking how implausible it was that we'd ever have computers that can talk to you like a real person. Never dreamed that AI would advance fast enough that just a regular old job interview could be handled by a computer. The AI actually does a good job responding to the gibberish.

Agree. Isn't it funny how probably all of us thought dumb, mechanical shit like flying cars and H20 engines were just matters of course, but that intelligently talking machines were always an "in the future" kind of thing

It’s 180. We will be able to create digital workers at scale. It’s like slavery except they will soon be smarter than us and we can mass produce them.
Most sci fi technology wouldn’t improve human quality of life much, but we can look forward to a future of sitting on our asses and living off of machine labor.

So HG Wells got it wrong. Instead of Morlocks, there should have been subterranean people with enormous, padded asses and extra sets of eyes that occasionally slough off and get replaced to ensure maximum continuity of screen time clarity
