In the chaotic world of the tech job market, where programmers of all levels are competing for a shrinking number of openings, candidates could secure a coveted offer — only to experience a bait-and-switch of sorts. Stefan Mai, cofounder of interview-prep startup Hello Interview and former senior engineering manager at Meta, told Business Insider that some job seekers finally snag senior positions, only for hiring managers to retract their original offers. An offer for a lower-level role is extended instead. Say hello to “downleveling.”
U.S. national security and briefed Chinese officials on emerging technologies like AI. She plans to tell the Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism that Meta executives “lied about what they were doing with the Chinese Communist Party to employees, shareholders, Congress, and the American public.” “I witnessed Meta executives consistently compromise US national security and betray American values,” she said in her prepared remarks. “They did these things in secret to win favor with Beijing and build a $18 billion dollar business in China,” referring to Chinese advertisers.
In an effort to expand access to jobs and reduce employer reliance on degrees for hiring, California will launch “career passports,” a tool that will combine academic records and “verified experience from work, military service, training programs, and more,” Gov. Gavin Newsom announced April 2.
The U.S. is still the global leader in state-of-the-art artificial intelligence, but China has closed the gap considerably, according to a new report from Stanford. Driving the news: Institutions based in the U.S. produced 40 AI models of note in 2024, compared to 15 from China and three from Europe, according to the eighth edition of Stanford’s Artificial Intelligence Index, released on Monday. However, the report found that Chinese models have rapidly caught up in quality, noting that Chinese models reached near parity on two key benchmarks after being behind leading U.S. models by double digit percentages a year earlier.
