Can't wait 'til it gets raunchy in everybody's DMs unprompted, just like the training data...
I don’t know why you’re downvoted here, it’s pretty well known there’s a huge bunch of people trying to pick up using LinkedIn DM’s, for whatever reason.

#133LinkedIn is an business card / CV storage site, where you can find a job. If it was just a bunch of linked profiles with a job matching function, it would still be LinkedIn. But of course, you can't work at a place that does something that mundane without suggesting something that makes you look like Facebook or Twitter. You have to at least give people some sort of reason to see what their old colleagues are up to.…
I agree this is how I (an engineer) use it too. But I suggest you talk to some more business people. They live on LinkedIn.

#134I would suggest that if LinkedIn is training their AI models on user data and content, users should get a copy of the said model free of charge. That or LinkedIn should at least be compelled to ask explicit permission for model training. None of this Darth Vader stuff where they "altered the deal".

And you should consider that it's probably junk. From the article: A 2021 study empirically tested several of Graeber's claims, such as that bullshit jobs were increasing over time and that they accounted for much of the workforce. Using data from the EU-conducted European Working Conditions Survey, the study found that a low and declining proportion of employees considered their jobs to be "rarely" or "never" useful…
>study found that a low and declining proportion of employees considered their jobs to be "rarely" or "never" useful. These people are self-reporting this. Quite frankly with the number of people in bullshit jobs who think they're doing work I wouldn't really put a lot of value in those types of self-reports.

#140Somehow i feel sad for this AI model. All the others are trained on authentic content and this boy gets socialised on the most shallow content imaginable. Poor, socially awkward AI.
