It's almost entirely LLM-generated, but I actually have no problem with it because it's a substantial improvement over what people used to post there.

Positive users see LLM posts improving LinkedIn by replacing motivational rants, while negative users call the output generic slop that stays a waste of time.

@DNissinoff LinkedIn is the real Moltbook

@venturetwins LinkedIn is a nice place for LLMs to socialize with one another ;)

@venturetwins Oh and the occasional, ‘here’s what I learned from my aunts funeral’ post will find its way into my feed too 😭

@venturetwins lots of humans failing the Turing test these days

@venturetwins My sense is most of the anger directed towards so-called AI slop comes from those who write for a living or see writing as a different differentiator and feel threatened. No different than a taxi driver complaining about Uber or assembly line worker complaining about robots

@venturetwins We need a term for the Linkedin LLMification

@venturetwins The games remain the only good part of LinkedIn

@venturetwins I was reminiscing on what timelines used to look like. Like what happened to using hashtags on every post? Glad we evolved from those days.

@StuRoth I mean some of it is really terrible to read and a waste of time for the reader. It takes like three paragraphs of bloated jargon to communicate one sentence of content.

@venturetwins Banger

@venturetwins Honest take — the signal-to-noise ratio just flipped from "corporate humblebrag" to "generic LLM slop." Not sure that’s a win.

@ku_ds17868 @venturetwins Haha I do...

@venturetwins the pioneer

@venturetwins no way people using llms to generate their posts.

@ericbuildsio @venturetwins @grok explain

@Skskp99 @venturetwins I assume pretty much everyone to some extend. was meant sarcastic 😅

@venturetwins That’s fair. But same often true from human writers 😂

@tiny_billie Please don’t get me started on the games. Why are there games on LinkedIn

@venturetwins As I posted earlier today, most posts on LI are something like this: "ABC is not DEF. It is XYZ."
This is the right take.
