ChatGPT Knows Your Name—Do You Like What It Sees?

Published 6 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader

A friend of mine was hired last week—because ChatGPT recommended him.

No kidding.

They didn’t dig through resumes. They didn’t network their way to him. They simply asked ChatGPT deep research to identify top candidates.

And my friend’s name came up.

That’s the world we live in now.

We used to worry about what showed up when someone Googled us. Then it was LinkedIn. And now? It’s AI.

Companies are literally asking large language models to assess us. To size up our digital presence. To recommend who’s worth hiring.

Here’s the real question:

Are you ready for that kind of visibility?

Try this little experiment:

Open ChatGPT and type in—

What do you know about [Your Name], and what are the pros and cons of hiring them for [Your Role]?”

It might feel strange at first, but give it a shot.

  • If the answer makes you smile—amazing. You’re doing something right.
  • If it’s crickets or confusing—don’t worry. But don’t ignore it either.

In this new landscape, your digital presence is your reputation.

🎯 That’s why I’m starting a 7-Day Personal Brand Challenge, starting May 26. It’s designed to help you show up—online and in the minds of hiring managers, colleagues, and yes, even ChatGPT.

By the end, you’ll have:

  • A profile that positions you as a top-tier hire
  • A repeatable system for creating and sharing content
  • A digital footprint that gets you found—by people and algorithms alike

Let’s make sure you’re not invisible in the age of intelligent search.

Cheering you on,

Daria

Hi Reader, Daria here. For more than 20 years, I’ve heard one story over and over again—that great managers are born, not made. That leadership is about charisma, instinct, and gut decisions. I hear it from the leaders I coach, the students I teach, and the business owners I talk to. I’ve been fighting this myth my entire career—through training, coaching, writing. And now, I’ve got help from somewhere I never expected: tech. Specifically, AI. As AI transforms the workplace at warp speed,...

Hi Reader, We all thought AI would make our work lighter. We imagined more space for thinking, creating, leading — and maybe even resting. Instead, many of us find ourselves surrounded by more noise than clarity. Endless drafts, summaries, reports, and presentations — all polished, all hollow. As Harvard Business Review recently called it, we’re drowning in “workslop”: AI-generated work that looks impressive but adds more work to fix. (Check out my LinkedIn post to learn more about it) And...

Hi Reader, I’ve been following the data on how people are using tools like ChatGPT. And to tell you the truth, I didn’t expect to see what I found. By mid-2025, over 700M people were using ChatGPT weekly. That’s almost 10% of the world’s adult population. On paper, it looks like a revolution. But when you dig deeper into how it’s being used, a different story comes out. Most people aren’t using it to push their work forward. They’re using it to make memes, draft Tinder bios, or ask random...
