When Your Job Interview Is With an Algorithm
Picture walking into a job interview only to realize your interviewer isn't human - it's an AI scanning your facial expressions, analyzing your word choices, measuring pauses in your speech. This isn't dystopian fiction. It's Tuesday. The transformation of work isn't lurking somewhere in the distant future; it's already rearranging our present. Restaurant kiosks that never call in sick are replacing cashiers. Warehouse robots are learning from each other through cloud-connected hive minds. Virtual assistants sound so convincingly human that we forget we're talking to code. Amazon warehouses now employ 55,000 Kiva robots that don't just move products - they share knowledge instantaneously across a networked intelligence. McDonald's has rolled out digital kiosks in 2,500 locations, with executives praising these workers for never showing up late, never filing discrimination suits, and consistently upselling. The economics are brutally simple: robots that once cost prohibitive amounts now represent viable alternatives to human labor, with $30,000 machines handling half a warehouse's daily shipments in half the time. The question isn't whether technology will reshape employment - it's whether we'll reshape our society fast enough to keep pace.
