Companies being forced to overhaul their interview processes is certainly an unexpected side-effect of the insurgence of LLMs.

On the other hand, encouraging employees to adopt "AI" in their workflows, while at the same time banning "AI" on interviews, seems a bit hypocritical - at least from my perspective. One might argue that this is about dishonesty, and yes, I agree. However, AI-centric companies apparently include AI usage in employee KPIs, so I'm not sure how much they value the raw/non-augmented skill-set of their individual workers.

Of course, in all other cases, not disclosing AI usage is quite a dick move.

>> seems a bit hypocritical

Companies always are.

It's okay for companies to use AI in recruitment process but not for the candidates.

It's okay to lay off people to cut costs but not okay to say you are looking for a new job to get higher salary.
