Man Applies To 1,000 Jobs Using AI While Asleep
NDTV ^ | 01/09/2025 | Nikhil Pandey

Over on the Reddit 'Get Employed' forum, the user claimed he created an AI bot that "analyses candidate information, examines job descriptions, generates unique CVs and cover letters for each job, answers specific questions that recruiters ask, and automatically applies to jobs."

"In just one month, this method helped me secure around 50 interviews."

When it gets to that point, AI will be doing the job so the applicant’s services will not be needed.

these kind of people shirk their workload of on coworkers as often as possible.....and then steal the credit.

I had precisely this experience at my former employment. I wrote some incredibly complex software that saved the company a ton of money. Another individual working in the San Ramon office wrote documentation about my software...and was given credit for the software AND promoted. Face time with the upper management counts for more than doing the substantial work 500 miles away.

He still would have effed it up. He would have plagiarized a translated Hitler speech instead of Kinnick.

I knew a guy in college, whose brother (going to a different university), plagiarized a book by a well-known author for his term paper. As it turned out, the well known author was also his professor. BIG oops! Also a big “F”…..😖

Anyone still using 20th century technology is going to be left behind

Some of us are counting on that.

Yep. I get that. When my wife was shopping for a new car she specifically wanted one with no touch screen, no Apple Carplay, no lane assist nannies and etc.

She did allow heated seats because - who wouldn’t want that?

She’ll drive my high tech SUV only when absolutely necessary.

She still refers to emailing attachments as “faxing” them. She has very limited knowledge about how to use her iPhone and PC, she makes hand written notes to remind herself of things and still keeps a paper calendar.

I tell her she’s stuck in the 20th century. She smiles and says she likes it that way.

Did you allow 5 minutes for acceleration?

Assuming reaching the travel speed at once, the first train would cover 120 miles by 7AM. Dividing the remaining 325 miles by the combined speed of 130 gives 2.5 hours and a crash time of 9:30.

Train Collision Time Calculation

Train from Wokeville:

- Leaves at 5:00 AM.

- Travels at 60 miles per hour.

Train from DEIBurgh:

- Leaves at 7:00 AM.

- Travels at 70 miles per hour.

Distance between Wokeville and DEIBurgh: 455 miles.

The train from Wokeville has a 2-hour head start:

- Distance covered by Wokeville train in 2 hours: 60 miles/hour * 2 hours = 120 miles.

- Remaining distance to cover: 455 miles - 120 miles = 335 miles.

Relative speed of the two trains:

- 60 miles/hour + 70 miles/hour = 130 miles/hour.

Time to cover the remaining distance:

- 335 miles / 130 miles/hour = 2.57692307692 hours.

- Converted to hours and minutes: approximately 2 hours and 34.61 minutes.

Time of collision:

- 7:00 AM + 2 hours and 34.61 minutes = 9:34:37 AM (rounded to the nearest second).

Yep. 455 - 120 = 335, not 325.
