I dunno why people even care about this bullshit pseudo-science. The study is dumb AF. The dude didn't even use real resumes. He had an LLM generate TEN fake resumes and then the "result" is still within any reasonable margin of error. Reading this article is like watching a clown show.

It's all phony smoke and mirrors. Clickbait. The usual "AI" grift.

I feel as though generating these "fake" resumes is one of the top uses for LLMs. Millions of people are probably using LLMs to write their own resumes, so generating random ones seems on par with reality.
