Where people slip
- !Generic motivation that could apply to any AI company
- !Buzzword-heavy answers without mechanisms
- !No measurable impact or personal ownership
- !Ignoring cost, latency, safety or operational constraints
- !Treating reported questions as a script rather than preparing underlying skills
06
Ask them this

- ?Which model, data or product constraint most limits the team today?
- ?How are research, product and engineering decisions resolved?
- ?How does the team evaluate AI quality before and after launch?
- ?What is the policy on AI-tool use during each interview stage?
