A partner showed me their CRM tool, it had an AI component that created a profile of each of their contacts. It was pretty complete and clearly had info from LinkedIn and other sources.

The personality summary was concerning as it was both deeply accurate in some respects and deeply inaccurate in others. Most concerning, it said I was "risk adverse" and "struggles to make decisions with incomplete data".

With 35 years at startups and independent contracting, risk tolerance and ability to make decisions with incomplete data are kind of in my wheelhouse.

Worse, if this profile was being shown to potential employers, it could (would?) be a deal breaker. It's kind of like being judged by your MBTI results.
