I hate useless excessive interview processes as much as the next guy, but all the things you've said would be true for any form of interview. You'll not get you time back and you could have been using it in many other ways. The company could still ghost you too. You said nothing which was exclusive to an AI interview.

The problem is now the company has no skin in the game. If the company spent a large amount of time & energy vetting the candidate then it is a more equal transaction.

What's the $ cost of running these AI interviewer models for the interview + candidate evaluation? Time not being fungible the way money is, it still feels asymmetric - but it isn't like the firm using an AI interviewer is spending nothing.

Yeah but that is true for any form of interview, if there is a leet code problem set it's the same no? So is if they ask you to write a few answers down in a form.

Every company I’ve worked at has spent more people-time reviewing the submitted code or reviewing the answers than the applicant spent doing the work.

I mean, yeah, I agree with you here. Coding tests and even the masses of resume retyping are in the exact same boat, and I think we all hate it because of that. The asymmetry is denigrating.
