I wasn't making a value judgement, for what it's worth. I'm not sure the commenter that you're replying to was either.

It isn't the use of automation that is the problem. It's that in the automated applications we're receiving, there is very obviously fraudulent information in there. The applicants are LYING about their experience, in order to match the job specification.
ChatGPT just consumes each of the job requirements, and then makes a story about how the applicant has had significant experience in all of those areas. I would prefer not to hire people who lie about their experience to get a job.

Who cares? The specifications half the time include experience that's impossible to achieve because the people writing them either are also in turn using automated software and/or because they have no idea what they're hiring for.
You get what you fuckin deserve. If you can't be arsed to review applications with people, why should people be arsed to apply in person?
