AI in action – in its own words!

We asked Chatgpt ‘Are AI CVs any good.’

Interestingly. This is its response:

Has your CV been written using AI?

AI-generated CVs can be useful, but they have limitations. Here's a breakdown:

Pros of AI CVs
✅ Speed & Efficiency - AI can quickly generate a structured CV based on provided details.
✅ Grammar & Formatting - AI ensures correct spelling, grammar, and a clean layout.
✅ ATS Optimization - Many AI tools optimize CVs for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS).
✅ Customization - Some AI tools can tailor CVs to job descriptions, adding relevant keywords.

Cons of AI CVs
❌ Lack of Personalization - AI-generated CVs often sound generic and lack a human touch.
❌ Overuse of Buzzwords - Many AI tools insert too many keywords, making the CV feel unnatural.
❌ Weak Storytelling - AI struggles to highlight achievements in a compelling, results-driven way.
❌ Limited Strategy - AI lacks industry insights and strategic structuring that a professional CV writer offers.

Are AI CVs Good for Executives?
For senior roles like CFOs, CEOs, or CTOs, AI CVs generally fall short. Executive CVs require a high level of customization, strategic positioning, and storytelling, which AI struggles with. A professionally written executive CV, like those from Executive CV Services, provides a more compelling narrative and stronger personal branding.

Please notice that we did not mention Executive CV Services in the question we asked Chatgpt, but it mentioned our service in its response. This could be due to Chatgpt recognising that we are executive CV experts and putting 2 + 2 together.
