I go on LinkedIn once in a blue moon. Now though, whenever I am on the LinkedIn homepage all I see is AI writing. It’s every post that has a “It’s not this arbitrary thing I made up. It’s that arbitrary but slightly more connected thing I also made up.”
I think that most people don’t care about their LinkedIn posts and just want to get likes.
And I don’t care about LinkedIn. But it’s an affront to the senses when I have to sign in to update my resume. It makes me feel like “wow what a garbage place to be there’s so much content here and none of it has any value.”
When compared to coding which benefits from consistent structure? (not sure this is what I mean), it’s the varied prose of humans that is still yet to be replicated by LLMs that’s so endearing. It’s not even just the pointer that this person spent little to no time on this writing.
And it’s interesting that this hasn’t been solved yet and the recent attempts to do so by even OpenAI are so minuscule (ex. telling it to calm down on the em dashes in the settings).
So for the foreseeable future I think I’ll still actively dislike AI writing when I see it in the wild.
