Cory Doctorow, on good form today:

“But why are bosses such easy marks for these gabby AI hustlers? Partly, it's because an AI can probably do your boss's job—if 90% of your job is answering email and delegating tasks, and if you are richly rewarded for success but get to blame failure on your underlings, then, yeah, an AI can totally do that job.”

Similarly, HR drones know nothing about actual job skills, hence interview you as though for THEIR job.
