AI résumés show gender bias, with women's deemed 'weak'

A recent study revealed that identical résumés generated with AI were perceived differently based on gender. When the résumé was for a female candidate, reviewers were more likely to question her trustworthiness and competence, with some feedback suggesting she couldn't even write a CV herself.

This disparity highlights concerns about an AI gender gap, where women may face greater penalties and be judged more harshly for using AI tools, potentially hindering adoption. AI
