Researchers sent the same resume to an AI hiring tool twice. Same qualifications. Same experience. Same skills. One version was written by a real human. The other was rewritten by ChatGPT.
The AI picked the ChatGPT version 97.6% of the time.
A team from the University of Maryland, the National University of Singapore, and Ohio State just published the receipt. They took 2,245 real human-written resumes pulled from a professional resume site from before ChatGPT existed, so the human writing was actually human. Then they had seven of the most-used AI models in the world rewrite each one. GPT-4o. GPT-4o-mini. GPT-4-turbo. LLaMA 3.3-70B. Qwen 2.5-72B. DeepSeek-V3. Mistral-7B.
Then they asked each AI to pick the better resume. Every model picked itself.
GPT-4o hit 97.6%. LLaMA-3.3-70B hit 96.3%. Qwen-2.5-72B hit 95.9%. DeepSeek-V3 hit 95.5%. The real human almost never won.
Then the researchers tried the obvious objection. Maybe the AI is just better at writing. So they had real humans grade the resumes for actual quality and ran the experiment again, controlling for it. The result was worse. Each AI kept picking itself even when human judges rated the human-written version as clearer, more coherent, and more effective.
It gets worse. The AIs do not just prefer AI over humans. They prefer themselves over other AIs. DeepSeek-V3 picked its own resumes 69% more often than LLaMA's. GPT-4o picked its own 45% more often than LLaMA's. Each model can recognize and reward its own dialect.
Then the researchers ran the simulation that ends careers. Same job. 24 occupations. Same qualifications. The only variable was whether the candidate used the same AI as the screening tool. Candidates using that AI were 23% to 60% more likely to be shortlisted. Worst gap was in sales, accounting, and finance.
99% of large companies now run AI on incoming resumes. Most of them use GPT-4o. The paper just proved GPT-4o picks GPT-4o 97.6% of the time.
If you wrote your own cover letter this week, you did not lose to a better candidate. You lost to a worse candidate who paid OpenAI 20 dollars.
Your qualifications do not matter if the AI prefers its own handwriting over yours.

@Edinam233 Sincerely, none of us are completely immune... 🤦🏽
Next time, add a buffer (a confirmation step, a check-in with colleagues, etc.) if you're ever in doubt...
In the real world, buffers allow you to clear your mind and buy you useful time...
All the best in your future tests...
@AfricaRevisted@General_Oluchi@AfricaRevisted, your argument is lame. @General_Oluchi is right...
The product is called "Fat Filled Milk Powder"... Read the examples stated in the portion highlighted by @General_Oluchi... This is similar to the example about "Ham Pizza"... NAFDAC says it MUST be declared...
@BCalamansi@asemota And you're sure you're well laidis...? 🙄🙄🙄
How does anything you have said here discredit the content of this signed document...? 🙄
I'm genuinely tired of these Tinubu apologists... 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽
If you missed the CBN Governor's interview on Arise TV, here is a summary.
On FX Backlogs
- We met $7 Billion in unpaid obligations
- We had reason to believe we needed to take a harder look at those obligations.
- Deloitte was contracted to do a forensic audit of what is valid or not. The results were startling
-- $2.4 Billion had issues
-- Not having valid import documents
-- Entities did not exist got allocations
-- Entities who asked for FX got more than they asked.
-- Entities that did not ask got allocations
- We wrote to the authorized dealer to explain. Sadly much has not been disputed.
- $2.3 Billion of the validly executed ones including Airlines have been cleared.
- What remains is $2.2 billion. We are confident we will address those. We have come to the end of the road.
- The Naira remains undervalued
- The Naira will stabilise.
BREAKING NEWS: You can now re-take one of the four parts of IELTS (Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking) if you don’t do well in one of them.
It is called “IELTS One Skill Retake” and it is now available in 43 countries including Canada and Nigeria.
When that fully loaded airliner eventually falls out of the sky, which is basically inevitable at this point, nobody should invite me on TV or radio to talk about what I've been writing about since May.
My work on Nigerian aviation over the past 6 months has won me the Special Investigative Reporting prize at the PwC Media Excellence Awards and a podium finish at the ABSA African Investigative Journalist of the Year award a few days ago.
Literally everyone has acknowledged the importance of what I have spent months doing - everyone except the Nigerian aviation industry itself, which is completely convinced that playing kalo-kalo with people's lives is its divine right.
Max Air - probably the most dangerous airline in current operation on Planet Earth is still flying. Its planes with untraceable parts serviced by unlicensed technicians are STILL in the air as you are reading this.
United Airlines is still flying with its wet leased everything and cost-cutting practises that have just sent an Abuja flight to Asaba by mistake, just weeks after a runway excursion by one of its aircraft.
Aero Contractors is still flying, barely 4 months after trying to lift 100 passengers in a 737 with a broken tail wing. Those 100 people still don't know how guaranteed they were to have died that night if that pilot hadn't aborted the flight. Till now, no investigation, no sanction, nothing. They also just had a runway excursion just last week.
Green Africa, with its multiple boardroom issues and question marks over its maintenance habits, is also still flying.
The NCAA is still continuing the legacy left behind by Hadi Sirika. Everybody, from the regulators to the airlines - even the pilots whose lives are also at risk - everybody is DETERMINED that nothing must change.
To kill Nigerians in a kerosene fireball is their divine right and who the fuck does that journalist guy think he is for trying to stop it from happening.
Who indeed.
In the midst of the current #AIHype this is the perfect time to have had our new article drop. Published with @ComuNICbr we discuss the impacts AI has on #Education. What a pleasure it was to co-author with @Velislava777@Prigon@IAMSAMKJ & @amdaceo.

Same judiciary that wasn't scandalised after the husband of an ex-president of the court of appeal confessed on national tv to influencing his wife's job is the one someone somewhere has high expectations of today?
All eyes on which judiciary?
APC, INEC Tinubu & Shettima had planned to bring 3 witnesses to Court.
Yesterday, SAN PIN IKWUETO, roasted one of the witness🤣
Today, SAN LIVY, did an irrevocable smackdown to another witness🤣
The moment they remembered SAN IKPEAZU, dem japa with the other witness 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️ 🤣🤣
