2/The first reaction is always "the AI just prefers better writing."
The researchers tested this directly. They had real humans grade the resumes for clarity and quality. Then they ran the experiment again, controlling for actual writing quality.
The bias survived. GPT-4o still picked its own writing 81.9% of the time even when the human resume was objectively better.
Quote from the paper: each AI "consistently selected its own generated summary over the human-written alternative, even in cases where human annotators judged the human-written summary to be higher quality."
The AI is not picking better writing. It is picking writing that sounds like itself.
Humanity First UK doctors and nurses traded scrubs for paintbrushes, cleaning and preparing neonatal wards for newborns in The Gambia.
Then, they put their skills to training local clinicians, performing lifesaving surgeries, and sharing knowledge that will save lives for years to come.
Grateful to each volunteer serving humanity 💙 https://t.co/yTD1j1pwGq
🔴Today, @TheBMA, @IntChildHealth, MSF and others have written to the Government impressing the need to urgently act on Gaza medical evacuations plan, avoiding any further delays.
Every minute of inaction increases the risk of a child selected for treatment in the UK dying. 1/3
Today, a violent mob has gathered outside Ahmadiyya Hall in Karachi’s Preedy area after Friday prayers, chanting anti-Ahmadiyya slogans. The incident began as Ahmadis had assembled for prayers. Further details to follow.
There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza.
If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.
End all arms sales to Israel, now.
Ten years of Tory flat-line funding did structural damage, leading to staff shortages, outdated equipment, and longer waiting times. Making it harder improve or maintain productivity levels. https://t.co/KL7Gs2RXh3
There was a whole period when well regarded British commentators insisted Israel would never target civilians, never attack a hospital, and were offended at the suggestion. They have blithely moved on to other matters.
These are the screams of women and children sheltering in tents in a hospital courtyard in Deir al-Balah as Israel rained bombs on them while they were sleeping. This is #genocide 2.0, executed while the eyes of the world is shifting from #Gaza.
Say his name Shaban. The man, the human, the soul behind the photo seen around the world. The man who was burnt alive by an evil regime, while being attached to an IV in a hospital.
The word war crime doesn't even begin to cover this. He is not a number. Not one single person murdered is.
His name was Shaban.
May he rest in peace and rise in power.

During a football game in Israel, fans raised a sign that reads “Israeli child worth more than Palestinian one”
@FIFAcom Israeli fans themselves are giving you evidence of the genocide being committed in Gaza.

This is a very powerful read. I know this isn’t unique to Paediatrics but I’m very proud that a paediatrician has the courage to share this. We absolutely must normalise talking about distressing cases and how they make us feel @RCPCHtweets https://t.co/dejB8MIVmV

The #ClimateCrisis is a health crisis.
And it’s not a hypothetical crisis in the future. It’s right here and right now.
The health gains from climate mitigation and adaptation outweigh the costs and are a compelling argument for stronger #ClimateAction.
We thank #WHA77 delegates for their commitment.
