What if the people that post on LinkedIn are actually just being themselves

LinkedIn is definitely flooded with AI slop, but we also need to keep in mind that Pangram really doesn't work that well. I just tried it, wrote a few sentences about my day, and it was flagged as AI-generated (which doesn't surprise me since these tools are known to easily flag writing from people whose native language is not English [1]). I am really suspicious of the 0.1% false positive rate they claim to achieve.

Also, in case you didn't already know, I saw a headline announcing that the sky is usually blue.

Oh yeah I can't wait for the next election. Things get so toxic when money/power is involved.

money/power will not be involved in the next election? Not sure if I completely follow your comment.

I think they mean ai content will make it much worse.

What I agree with in this article is that there is shit ton of slop on the internet today. What I disagree with is that if pangram says it's human, then it's not AI. That is hardly the case. Pangram fails spectacularly in detecting AI.

https://github.com/deepanwadhwa/ai_detector_fails/blob/main/... - I posted this link in another thread the other day. I might do more of these tests in the upcoming days and put universal jailbreaks for people to fool these 'AI detectors'.

Was just thinking today, -- happened to login to LinkedIn, open it up and the entire front page is just AI slop being applauded and liked with people seriously interacting with it as if it's somebody didn't just shit it out in 20s with zero effort. The whole thing needs to die so badly.

On Instagram, I'll get fed "real" content, but you read the description and it's this giant 3-4 paragraph thing that I don't bother to read because I know with certainty that it's AI slop. Before AI, the descriptions of sports videos or meme videos were 2 sentences, now they're entire theses.

The only people left reading this crap are people that still haven't caught up with the concept of AI slop

It's like a burgoo [1]. A steaming cauldron of community slop.

Hey, at least a bowl of burgoo tastes good, unlike some community slops.

Tbh I’ve always treated it as three things:

1) Glorified Rolodex

2) Place too see which of my peers got promoted or moved dormant

3) Source material for /r/linkedinlunatics

Reading the crap in the feed has never been a thing

The question is not whether something is AI generated. That's the default state now. Question whether it is human, the economics are exceedingly in the favor of this new normal. https://javiergonzalez.io/blog/the-economics-of-slop/

Same here, I hate it. Instead of just reading I find myself also dedicating brain power trying to decide if it's worth reading or not based on the first few sentences... if someone can't put in the effort to actually write something themselves I absolutely do not want to put in the effort to read it.

Now let's stir the shit further, on LinkedIn group the posters of AI content by country/company.
