Our client does understand that the use of AI (Artificial intelligence platforms like ChatGPT) can be a useful tool for candidates to assist in applying for their roles. They are not advocating a ban on the use of AI however, they would ask that applicants do still allow for their authentic voice to be present, and they look forward to seeing examples of your specific experience in such a way that an AI application will not be able to replicate in the same way.
