Kinda surprised author uses GPT-3 to generate JSON and then a template to go from JSON to the reply. Why not have GPT-3 generate the reply?
You can do that too, starting from an intermediary json, to reduce the chance of incorrect final results

#92Extracting NAME and ORG could not be done with a lightweight Named Entity Recognition model from HuggingFace?
Re: Responding to recruiter emails with GPT-3
#93I was curious how GPT-3 would fare with a more elaborate response, so I pasted a random recruiter email and asked it to reply with more information, if the information wasn't in the email. I am quite astonished by its performance, and this is coming from the guy who made an entirely AI-generated podcast ( https://deepdreams.stavros.io ) https://www.pastery.net/zdxyvy/
Unrelated, your Stable Diffusion image compression article was amazing, thanks for that.
Haha, thank you!

#94Taking into account that some sort of automated tool also generates recruiter letters and follow-ups - we witnessed a fight of two computers without any value in it for anyone.

#96While it’s a nice concept I agree it’s probably not the best fit for the use case. I also don’t understand the point of recruitment spam. What’s the purpose of sending 5 follow up emails. I find it absolutely annoying and would never respond back to an unsolicited email. Surely had they enough applicants for an appealing job, they wouldn’t have chased that much.

Re: Responding to recruiter emails with GPT-3
#98I don't get why you'll need AI for this. Couldn't you get the same result by using regex on the email from the sender?
that's the point of the article... it's hard to write a regex that works on arbitrary emails from recruiters, but GPT is quite good at extracting information from arbitrary emails.
Agreed. This showed me a nice use case scenario for GPT3 that I wasn't aware of.

#99Earlier quoted context omitted.
Fishing for what sort of clients?
They mean fishing for CVs. Many recruiters invent roles so that they can build a database of CVs.
Invent roles, or straight up lie. The giveaway is usually that they want a call with you to discuss details, or can’t produce any job description.

> What’s the purpose of sending 5 follow up emails
because people often respond (positively) on the 4th - 5th sales email you send, even if they ignored the first, and anyone who's truly pissed off will have just marked it as spam already or blocked you.
I understand it would be better if that wasn't true, but it is true, and that's why people send automated follow-ups.
