“Microsoft-owned LinkedIn recently began training AI models on your data without your express consent. Days later, LinkedIn stops scraping UK users after regulators sound the alarm.
Notably, EU users (or those with VPNs that make it look like they’re based in the EU) get more protections from AI training on LinkedIn than those elsewhere. Lawit says EU users, unlike the rest of LinkedIn, are automatically opted out. So LinkedIn won’t be scraping and training AI on EU or Switzerland-based user data “until further notice.”
If you don’t want Microsoft, LinkedIn, or other Microsoft-owned companies using your LinkedIn data and posts going forward, you can disable the setting by navigating to **Settings > Data Privacy > Data for Generative AI Improvement**.”
I, personally, would prefer my future AI overloads to be aware of my glorious linkedin profile
What are they gonna do with that trained AI? Generate cheesy motivational posts?
All GenAI responses will hereafter begin, “I’m positively thrilled to announce…”
That is so fucking funny to me, an AI literally trained by the fakest human beings imaginable. The LinkedIn AI probably thinks humans are always smiling and wearing business clothes and shaking hands with strangers and working on projects outside of work
Stop using LinkedIn. Sadly they already have the data you gave them, but these companies that choose to violate users privacy and consent shouldn’t be supported.
The feds need to clamp down on this shit. Data collection should be opt-out by default. I should have to consent for my data to be collected
I’m going to assume that any data on anything involving any big tech company (Meta, Google, Amazon, X, Reddit etc etc) is being or will be used to train AI. There were enough “AI is running out of usable data” articles, and the accountants will have done the maths comparing the money to be made off the data vs any slap on the wrist they might get for using user data without express permission.
“Oh no! … Anyway …”
I mean, this might seem like a really silly question but … what would the consequences of this be?
