LinkedIn Premium subscribers get access to its own in-house AI writing tools.

Over 54 percent of longer English -language posts on LinkedIn are likely AI-generated.

LinkedIn users who spoke to WIRED say they rely more on general-purpose large language models to cobble their LinkedIn posts together rather than bothering with specialty AI tools.

LinkedIn may have inadvertently created the ideal laboratory for AI writing.

Nobody’s logging on expecting profundity, hilarity, or sincerity.

LinkedIn is the place where people strive to be the most anodyne versions of themselves.

Artificiality, in other words, is what everyone is expecting.
