Yes ,, gs.getuser is not supported in user criteria ,, there is a problem ticket opened

This is the solution given by Hi team

Solution Proposed: ============ IS THIS A BUG? ============

So we are dealing with a bug on our platform which is intermittent and occurs very rarely. This is recorded in PRB1319258 with the following description: Using GlideSystem objects such as gs.getUser(), gs.getUserID(), gs.getSession() in User Criteria does not work as expected consistently. This problem has been declared as "Working As Expected" with the reason that the issue happens very rarely.

============ ANY WORKAROUND? ============ However, we have a workaround in place which will involve moving your implementation to using script include (which is aware of application scope changes). This will ensure that the value returned correctly every time without failing intermittently. Please throughly review this knowledge article regarding this (has examples): https://hi.service-now.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0719846

condition = answer();
 
function answer(){
var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
gr.addQuery('sys_id', gs.getUserID());
gr.addQuery('active', true);
gr.query();
condition = gr.hasNext(); 
	return condition;
}

where are we checking the condition here ?

If that is the case, I will just use this in the advanced script section

answer=gs.isInteractive();
