During todays class, I used ChatGPT as a generative AI source, while other members of my group used NotebookLM. We made an attempt to research and discover AI hiring tools as a topic and see which sources came up to compare reliability. Group members that did not use ChatGPT found sources like “15 best AI hiring tools” and “10 Best AI hiring sources.” While using ChatGPT, I found sites that were about AI sourcing and outreach such as hireEZ and Zoho Recruit. I believe that ChatGPT is more reliable because I have used it to find me sources on topics, and I’ve used it for citations to format properly. Often, it’s easier to do because you can just copy and paste the source into the search bar and then ask it to format the source properly. I’m sure others prefer to use NotebookLM, but I’ve seen both sides and I have used what I prefer. I do not have any plans to use Ai any differently going forward, but it was brought to my attention that ChatGPT is not great for sources to find, and I have to be more careful with the usage of it while avoiding bias. This is something I’m taking into consideration moving forward heavily. If I’m being honest, I don’t think AI is headed in the right direction, I believe it’s taking over for the worse and not the better. It is taking up things like job opportunities, energy, and data. This can be a massive problem in the future. An argument from another groups findings was about the trajectory of AI and how people also think it’s getting worse. It’s scary to look at the many ways robots can project information as well as personal data.
