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.

We have a special treat today at @RPSLuquillo , @MyEdTechLife flew all the way to Puerto rico in order to give a special podcast training to the students of RPS. Thank you so much Fonz! We also had the lovely miss Lori Menning And Christine Dyer.

The Flock Leaders program has been such an honor to create and lead. I’m grateful for all of the educators who have made it so special. @techmyschool has given me so much more than I could have ever expected.

If you are ever wondering about what a day in the life of being CEO at @techmyschool , I took this past week and put it in a holiday post card. From building a media center and new library, delivering professional developments to donating technology, this is the life of TMS

Congratulations @CoachVinnieDC and the rest of the staff for an amazing season. 4-peat champs for @GraniteEagles. Tough loss to Pacifica, but that comeback was awesome! Great halftime adjustments to get us into the drivers seat. Keep doing what you are doing! You and Kel 4ever!

December is a great month because I always get to play Tech Santa 🎅. Another tech donation to kids last week and more to come this week as well.

Incredible dedication! Your perseverance and courage to share knowledge inspire us all 📚💪

School tech directors aren’t “the IT guy.” They’re the backbone of every decision a campus makes. My convo with @cobbsclass exposes why tech planning is broken and how @TechPlanGenie finally gives schools a real strategy instead of another wishlist. If you’re tired of chaos driving edtech decisions, this one hits hard. 🔗 myedtech.life/techplangenie/ #EdTech #K12 #SchoolLeadership #EduTwitter #TechDirector #AIinEducation #MyEdTechLife #EdTechStrategy
