If I’m asking you about previous projects you’ve worked on using X technology, then yes I would consider it cheating to use AI to answer.

So where's the line? And how is that communicated?

Or is this another arbitrary power play to suffer?

The reality is most companies will force you to use AI in various forms likely from day 1, so the hypocrisy is quite stark

The line is where ever it needs to be for the role and the candidate. Hiring is subjective, using AI to tell me about your previous projects is a signal you are sending. For some roles that may be a positive signal for others it may be negative.

But if you can’t talk about your personal experience without AI telling you what to say, then I don’t want to hire you.

You're not engaging in the discussion of the hypocrisy and the contrast of how hiring managers behave versus what the job requires.

I know hiring managers on HN love to wade in to these topics all haughty and boasting who they don't hire, acting the mr big shot etc. It's a shame that this is that yet again

At least you implicitly admit it's an arbitrary line and a power play of sorts.
