Yup, the vast majority of the posts weren't worth reading even before generative AI was this accessible
I was wondering why it sounded more human these days
That's fine, most of the content was written by corporate robots before anyway.
A match made in the grayest depth of banality.
How fitting, that content no one wrote, goes on to be content no one reads.
They've eliminated the need for both creators and consumers of content. Certainly this gain in efficiency will add value to society
Top Tip: Do have a LinkedIn Profile so that employers can find you and verify that you are a person with experience and connections.
However, do not read LinkedIn. Do not post thoughts or engage with LinkedIn content. That is what desperate, soul-sucking, horrible people do.
That awkward moment where you realize the forest is made of trees.
Turns out there was a job writing content so stupid that even AI could do a better job at it after all.
😂 I am always amazed how cringe my timeline on linkedin is, when I open it once a year to repost some stuff from my company 😆
I bet it’s because no one truly wants to be on linked in and suck up to their manager.
Now ai can handle the bs writing most people do.
exactly! "I was energized to meet with the team in X and discuss our sales figures" or "congrats, company Y, for disrupting the market of foot creams" is the best use of AI.
I'm not sure how you would even be able to tell if that type of content is AI-generated or just plain old copy-pasted from one of a thousand similar posts
Couldn't have happened to a nicer company.
That would mean the quality of the posts would have to improve.
Linkedin is just for the worst suck-ups, by which I mean they are the worst at sucking up.
The people on that hellhole are so soulless it wouldn't surprise me if the study miscategorized them.
A plastic existence
Ohhh you know what would be even better. That if the article complained about ai on LinkedIn was written with ai.
Right?
im on facebook and linkedin for the same reasons. linkedin is basically me linking to people I have actually done bussiness with. I can't believe people who pollute their connections with folks they don't know or are not business related. facebook is less curated but still about just a means of alternate communication. linkedin then to has my resume for headhunters mostly.
I accept any and all requests on linked in, as I just don't care about it.
I would love to dump it when I retire but I will need to wait some years. Like 10. so that younger folks I have worked with can still use me as a reference. of course who am I kidding. I will be working till im dead or to incompetent to help on linkedin.
Something to spew vapid ambiguous but generally positive bullshit, I guess they found the right place, both the bots and the corporate robots found a home.
No way, a social media full of artificial and robotic posts is very good for artificial and robotic robots writing artificial and robotic posts.
what the hell is that carpet pattern?
That's the skimping on janitorial wages special
what percentage of short-form video is AI now? I feel like all of the youtube short videos I get suggested are either AI or short clips of full videos.
k
from what I see on linkedin memes, that makes a lot of sense
Worst timeline
