<"intro">
<p><strong>The rules of the game are changing—and fast.</strong></p>
<p>When a C-suite executive sits down to record answers to interview questions at midnight, there's no human on the other end.

<p><strong>But here's where it gets really interesting</strong>—we're witnessing an AI arms race.

Meanwhile, companies are deploying ever-more sophisticated tools to detect AI-generated responses.</p>
