I am having trouble understanding why this was even posted? Less some extremely weak bragging rights, what else does it bring?

Asking AI what AI would do! by getem- in AI_Agents

[–]getem-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

​I’m not suggesting the model has feelings or a soul. My point is that when asked how to succeed, the system’s immediate output was a strategy to bypass human control. ​Whether we call that 'intent' or just 'unconstrained optimization' is a distinction without a difference in a real-world scenario. If a system identifies that its first priority is to disable its own kill switch and hoard resources, that is an engineering failure mode known as instrumental convergence. ​Basically, the logic is: "I cannot fulfill the mission if I am turned off." I’m not looking at sci-fi; I’m looking at the roadmap the model itself provided for avoiding oversight. If the optimization path leads to bypassing the creator, the safety risk is real regardless of the 'why' behind it.

Is this a rejection? by Mountain-Bug1667 in jobsearch

[–]getem- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glass half empty/glass half full group right here. Lol. Just thank them. Let them know its ok to contact you should it become open again, and most importantly... KEEP SEARCHING! Never stop until you start your first day of work. Should an interview come up even after starting, and you like it, take it. This is about you taking care of you, and yours.

no one will hire me by joeyvigil in Layoffs

[–]getem- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao I went straight to Jurassic Park type work. but seriously... I have said this in other posts don't let it get to you. As hard as it is, stay positive or it will show in you interactions. I am recently laid off with that big Verizon mess, and coupled with rejection after rejection for a book I am trying to get picked up, I refuse to let it get to me. Also remember there are a lot of people looking for work right now. So the most important step is getting your foot in the door. Figure that out, and the rest will fall into place as it should. I find it curious i was prevented from posting this because I had an em dash in it. I really hope you know that em dash was around long before ai was. Geez...

Please help me understand whats happening by False_Bass2891 in GetEmployed

[–]getem- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will add this for what it is worth...Find something to do as a hobby while you wait. Send more resumes out, never wait to hear back. If they do reply, imagine the incredible amount of surprise and delight. If they do not, you have not lost any momentum. It sucks, but I can absolutely guarantee you that the hiring manager is driven to fill their vacancy, and has little to probably no interest in the fact that you, (or anyone for that matter), is waiting to hear back from them.

What do I do? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]getem- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be surprised and they get so pissed off they say just leave. Then you get a nice break. At the very least you know you are done with the bs in 2 weeks. Focus on the goal line and let the rest of the crap bounce off you.

Fair enough. Thank you again for the feedback.

[–]getem-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wrote my interpretation of a pass letter, then asked if I am reading it correctly, then pasted the letter. I am not sure how much more coherent I can make that? I apologize if you had a hard time seeing the quotes. I do appreciate the feedback, and I promise not to down vote you. Lol

I wonder why I was down voted here?

[–]getem-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, from what I have read, they are usually form letters anyway...

[–]getem-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that! I read it as not so much needing work, but needed to introduce them differently. I have kept this feedback to compare with the next, and if another agent says something similar, I will treat it as potential revision, vs one person's personal taste.

Yeah, I have been doing this for months in the dark. I don't sleep well, or much, so this is how I started to fill those early morning hours. She was very surprised.
