LinkedIn recently confirmed that it is using user data to power its generative AI features.
However, looks like LinkedIn began training its AI without first obtaining explicit user consent.
The updated agreement will take effect in November.
The company claims it is working to minimize the presence of personal information in data used to train AI.
According to LinkedIn’s newFAQs on AI, the platform leverages machine learning to suggest new article ideas.
The generated draft can be edited or revised before being published, the company said.
As one userremarked, “I used to think LinkedIn was less evil than other social networks.
I guess I was very wrong.”
