AI Interviewers: What’s Your Instinct? 👀

Hey Product Hunters,

Autonomous AI interviewers handling the full first-round conversation, follow-ups, scoring, and summaries - have gone from sci-fi to shipping in under a year. I m curious how the community feels right now:

  • First word or emotion that pops up when you hear AI runs the entire first-round interview.

  • How have your early chatbot impressions evolved? Are there still pre-AI-boom biases in play?

  • If you ve already experienced an AI-led interview (candidate or recruiter), what surprised you most?

  • What would need to be true for you to feel fully comfortable trusting AI to screen candidates?
