Speaker 1 (00:00):
So I have made this vow to myself, I am
going to thoroughly investigate one or more or more AI
systems like chat, GPT or something like that. I've got
to I've got to understand it, I've got to experience it.
I know it's woke, I know it's going to come
from my vital organs at some point in the future,

(00:20):
but it's just too interesting to not dive into. So
I'm going to do that. I came across this it's
about how AI systems can help you find a job.
And as they say at Wired dot Com, the usual
disclaimers apply here, prone to an accuracy's falsehoods, blah blah blah.
But then they point out that one of the ways

(00:41):
AI chatbox can be most useful is getting you to
think a little bit differently, whether you're working out a
product launch or a new novel or really anything.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
I'm working on all those things exactly.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Chatbots can't really be creative or get inspiration, but they
are able to make connections that you might not wise
come up with on your own. And just as somebody
who's been involved in various creative arts, that is one
they have all sorts of interesting exercises you can do
your break your pottery efforts through the years, erotic pottery,

(01:17):
most pottery. Yeah, but they're exercises you can do to
break yourself out of your habits, because everybody gets into
habits and begin writing the same song over and over again,
for instance. Anyway, if you're looking to break free from
a particular job sector, or finding it difficult to get
a role in your chosen field, the chatbot can point
you towards similar positions. You also might be interested in

(01:37):
qualified for in different industries or fields that you're not
familiar with. You can tell your prompt tailor rather your
prompt to include details of skills required or desired salary,
or even like you want flexible hours or work remotely
or whatever. You can plug all sorts of junk in
there if you like. For example, the folks at Wired

(01:58):
tried this query teacher, what other jobs use similar skills
and offer similar pay but aren't teaching jobs? We got
back several interesting options, as well as some handy advice
for thinking about how to switch between jobs and transfer
our skills. You might also, oh, that's repeating that, so
I thought that would that's really interesting.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
That that is definitely something that I wouldn't know that
I wouldn't know.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Right, Yeah, you know, this job's kind of weird and unique.
Although I've often thought if this goes Kirk Blewie, what
would I do? And you know, I've thought about various
you know, corporate spokeshole or you know, political messaging or
something like that. I don't think spokes hoole is the
actual title, but this is just an extra thorough way

(02:47):
to approach that. It could probably generate six or eight possibilities.
I'm going to be a guy with my limited skills. Yeah,
State Fair blender salesman. Wow, those blenders are amazing.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, and whis quiet? You get a crowd around you
and you chop up like nine carrots into juice in
no time.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Oh please, then you got all the carrot juice you
can drink. That was a very obscure Simpsons reference, by
the way, and very old. But a prompt could be
as simple as as you're you know, as you're delving
into this, what does someone starting a new job as
a project manager need to know? And whatever or whatever embellishments.
When we tried that Queer, we were a query. We

(03:27):
were given an idea of the skills, software, and hierarchies involved.
When you get to the interview stage, you might ask
a chat bot what are the typical questions asked in
an interview for the role of whatever role and see
what responses you get. You can also get some ideas
about what a good answer looks like. What's the best
response to a question about blank? For example, you want

(03:49):
to answer as yourself, of course, but is that gonna idea?

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Is that going to have a limited shelf life?

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Though?

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Once everybody catches on to the fact that everybody is
having chat GPT write their.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Stuff, yes and no, it will change. And it's funny
this pop immediately into my head when you ask that question.
A friend who has a source close to a source
who has a source in Major League Baseball has pointed
out the drug testing isn't drug testing, it's intelligence testing

(04:23):
and how much do you care testing? Right?

Speaker 2 (04:25):
I get that in large measure.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
So if I care enough about this job to do
the doughc do with the chat GPT and get all
knowledgeable about what I may be asked and how I
ought to answer it. Eh, it's probably the kind of
guy you'd be a pretty decent employee.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Interesting, good point.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
It's kind of a given a damn test as opposed
to knowing this stuff test, so it's different. But I
like the idea of, hey, I've been doing this my
whole life, I'm sick of it, or the pace sucks.
Where could my skills go to an industry you'd never
even heard of.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
It's kind of cool.
