AI is making young professionals overconfident and underqualified, and it's costing them their first jobs. In this continuation of our discussion on AI confidence inflation, David McIntyre, Phillip Rich, and Jon Dzyuba dive deep into why 60% of Gen Z hires aren't making it past their first 90 days. They explore the dangerous practice of "skill fishing" on resumes, how AI creates learning gaps rather than filling them, and why relying on artificial intelligence as a crutch sets early-career professionals up for failure.

The guys break down practical strategies for using AI wisely while still developing real competence, how to verify AI outputs before they become your downfall, and why understanding underlying processes matters more than having quick answers. If you're entering the workforce or struggling in your early career, this episode will help you navigate the AI landscape without letting it inflate your confidence beyond your actual abilities. We begin to give you a roadmap for building genuine skills that stick.
