Got a notification from LinkedIn saying “You’re one of the few experts who have been invited to collaborate on …” I got curious and opened up the link.

Apparently, now instead of professional writers being paid to pen down their, usually, cohesive & authentic views, LinkedIn is trying out the idea of generating content using an LLM and then asking for free editorial services from users in exchange for “badges” 🤯 🤦‍♂️

This is cheap IMO. Even for LinkedIn.

What’s happened to the “content team” at LinkedIn!?

    If I’m gonna be doing freelance editing work for LinkedIn, I’d be charging 125 CAD (90 USD)/hr, 2 hr minimum.

    LinkedIn only helped a little with my job search, now I just like and re-share railway news, that’s it.
