I can describe those first three in three words:
“I scam people”
“I scam people”
“I scam people”
I mean, lots of automated capabilities are very real things, like running a hydroelectric plant.
See, I’d just describe my job as “running a hydroelectric plant” then. When people lead with the esoteric, abstract jargon instead of the concrete, that screams to me either they’re puffing up what they do to make it sound more impressive than it really is, or they’re a grifter. It’s like people that describe themselves as entrepreneurs; people who run a small business developing something they’re passionate about talk about making the product or service, people who talk about being an entrepreneur are about to sell you on a Ponzi scheme or MLM scam.
Notably four words, you hack
I mean I absolutely agree on a fundamental level, but practically even workers who do real things (like help run a hydro plant) will have to use phrases like these at and around potential employers. It's not being a grifter so much as speaking grifting language at grifters (employers/investors etc.). If someone says that kind of stuff to me as a non-work acquiantance, family, friend etc. then yeah it's for sure nonsense.
