DOGE Has Deployed Its GSAi Custom Chatbot for 1,500 Federal Workers

 

 

“Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency has deployed a proprietary chatbot called GSAi to 1,500 federal workers at the General Services Administration, WIRED has confirmed. The move to automate tasks previously done by humans comes as DOGE continues its purge of the federal workforce. GSAi is meant to support “general” tasks, similar to commercial tools like ChatGPT or Anthropic’s Claude. It is tailored in a way that makes it safe for government use, a GSA worker tells WIRED. The DOGE team hopes to eventually use it to analyze contract and procurement data, WIRED previously reported.”

Amazon Loves AI, Except When Candidates Use It in Job Interviews

“Recent Amazon guidelines shared with internal recruiters at the company say that job applicants can be disqualified from the hiring process if they are found to have used an AI tool during job interviews.

  • The candidate can be seen typing whilst being asked questions. (Note, it is not uncommon for candidates to write down/type the question asked as they prepare to answer.)
  • The candidate appears to be reading their answers rather than responding naturally. This could include correcting themselves when they misread a word.
  • The candidate’s eyes appear to be tracking text or looking elsewhere, rather than viewing their primary display or moving naturally during conversation.
  • The candidate delivers confident responses that do not clearly or directly address the question.
  • The candidate reacts to the outputs of the AI tool when they appear to be incorrect or irrelevant. This is often demonstrated by the candidate being distracted or confused as they are trying to make sense of the outputs.”

Suisse romande: La météo matinale est présentée par un avatar

“La première présentatrice télé romande créée à l’aide d’une intelligence artificielle a débarqué sur les écrans le 3 avril. La chaîne M Le Média a eu recours à un logiciel pour fabriquer de toutes pièces l’avatar féminin baptisé Jade pour la présentation du bulletin météo de l’émission matinale. «Les nouvelles technologies font partie de notre stratégie d’innovation pour offrir à notre audience un contenu de qualité», précise Philippe Morax, directeur général du groupe Millennium Média.”

“Cinq ans après le lancement d’Uber à Genève, les autorités du canton l’ont sommé de respecter la loi. Le conseiller d’Etat Mauro Poggia a envoyé mardi un courrier à un avocat de la multinationale en Suisse, Me Rayan Houdrouge, de l’étude Lenz et Staehelin. «Une injonction de se mettre en règle», selon Mauro Poggia. Le magistrat voit un lien de subordination entre les chauffeurs et Uber. Il estime que ce dernier est davantage un transporteur qu’un diffuseur de courses, au sens de la loi sur les taxis et voitures de transport avec chauffeur (LTVTC), un statut qui l’oblige à traiter les chauffeurs utilisant l’application comme ses employés. «Uber doit payer des salaires et s’acquitter de charges sociales, ce qu’il ne fait pas», selon Mauro Poggia.”

“80 to 90 per cent of the predictive assessment was based on the algorithms’ analysis of candidates’ use of language and verbal skills. “There are 350-ish features that we look at in language: do you use passive or active words? Do you talk about ‘I’ or ‘We.’ What is the word choice or sentence length? In doctors, you might expect a good one to use more technical language,” he said. “Then we look at the tone of voice. If someone speaks really slowly, you are probably not going to stay on the phone to buy something from them. If someone speaks at 400 words a minute, people are not going to understand them. Empathy is a piece of that.” The company says the tecnology is different to facial recognition and instead analyses expressions. Facial expressions assessed by the algorithms include brow furrowing, brow raising, eye widening or closing, lip tightening, chin raising and smiling, which are important in sales or other public-facing jobs.”

“The group created 500 computer models focused on specific job functions and locations. They taught each to recognize some 50,000 terms that showed up on past candidates’ resumes. The algorithms learned to assign little significance to skills that were common across IT applicants, such as the ability to write various computer codes, the people said. […] With the technology returning results almost at random, Amazon shut down the project.”

“On its face, Amazon’s decision to raise wages is unequivocally a good thing, with the power to positively impact the lives of hundreds of thousands of workers who were paid low wages even as their employer amassed enormous wealth. The pay increase also demonstrates the effectiveness of the Fight for $15 movement, a grassroots push formed in 2012 to increase pay and form unions in the retail and fast food industries.”
