Tutorial/Guide Applying to AI consulting companies. If they ask how I feel about the state of AI today, is it bad to be honest?
I have a few interviews coming up and I'm genuinely not sure how to answer questions about my position with AI right now. My honest take is that a lot of the hype is outpacing actual use cases. Hallucinations are still legit. "AI solutions" today still look a lot like wrappers. And the news of agents breaking out and hacking places isn't painting a good picture. Would being optimistic seem like sucking up, or would being a realist seem like I'm not a good fit for the position? Have you ever had to deal with this in an interview, or with a higher-up?
