Thought about this one too. I was expecting to re-read this same article to see how I feel about it now.

Yeah it does seem to me like AI text detection tools are racing against labs changing their post training goals.

Of course, you do need an API key and it took quite a while to get it last time I needed it, but it's there.

I doubt renowned US universities don't offer courses that cover those topics.

As someone who studied in a university system where the courses you had to take were mostly set in stone (just starting to offer some electives now), I really fancy the option of being able to choose what you study as much as possible.

The AI course I took was mostly symbolic methods and some classic ML at the end. Most students were not interested at all and would've probably been more engaged studying ML directly. Too bad that wasn't an option.

Not an ML expert, but is it feasible to train the weights using the actual Twitter feed as an oracle?

Because there's no other choice for entry/mid-level positions (and some lower end senior ones). Thankfully they are not 5 hours long, that's something I would also avoid.

For instance, in my recent job search for a new grad role, I had to do an OA for every company but Jane Street and Databricks (props to them).

> 3) Don't do coding exercises before you interview with someone, be weary of asymmetrical time expenditures. see #2.

I hope no one outside of highly experienced individuals applies this rule when looking for a job in 2025.

Yeah I was wondering where that came from, I think his background clears it up a bit.

The finance sector is worth living in the UK for IMO.

Damn that's absolutely ridiculous. It makes me feel less bad for Nokia CEO's burning platform speech.

I wonder if there's any alternatives to this that teach actual discipline when it comes to phones. Methods that actually attack the reason kids are using phones in school (boredom, social anxiety, uninterested in school etc.).

Wait till you get a self recorded behavioral interview. I truly wonder if there is that much value to be extracted out of 10 minutes of people awkwardly responding to questions while trying their best to fill in the silence.
