""📢 Share this video with your friends on social media. It's a big help to me." Did a job candidate actually say this in an answer to a question during an online interview Nope. It was an AI hallucination. I've been using OpenAI's whisper to transcribe audio to text (as part of @ReliScore work: asking candidates to record audio/video answers to questions) and it works very well in most cases. But when the candidate doesn't say anything (i.e. the audio is blank) Whisper makes some glorious hallucinations. Because the AI is correct 95+% of the time there are high chances of the"

I listened carefully to the audio and this is exactly what the candidate said. The only error the AI made is that the "while gate line in line in file with line" should have been "while getline in line in file with line" . but I don't know if I can fault the AI for that because in the Marathi accent "get" does get pronounced as "gate" "in that code I used added the constant to constant together the function parameter where the appropriate make the code is clear and safe"
