It hasn't yet crossed my mind that we would soon have to start attaching a hand-drawn signature of ours to each of our email just to prove that we are indeed humans.

Always a step ahead, companies already show that they won't be ever interested in distinguishing real people from robots. After all, both are only just means of generating revenue, no?

How do we know she doesn't exist? I'm more than willing to believe it's true but if you don't provide evidence, your argument is as valid as the average conservative rag.

    I can’t speak for this case in particular, but I did encounter a number of job finder and résumé help websites with AI personae presented as real people with human names while I was job searching. At least ZipRecruiter does disclose somewhere on their site that their AI “Phil” isn’t a human, despite its use of personal pronouns such as “I” in emails.

    Edit: Actually, I was able to find “Claudia Baker” in my old emails from the time when I was job searching. The résumé review from JobLeads is no longer available so I can’t provide the text output, but I 100% remember it being a frustrating load of AI slop in a time when I was desperate for help and really wondering what was wrong on my end. The situation was incredibly manipulative and insulting.
