I love LinkedIn. Its the world biggest art project, mirroring all the trivialities of our work life and business bigotry right back into our faces in an endless feedback loop.
The fascinating thing about LinkedIn is how little LLMs have changed it; even before LLMs, most LinkedIn content was written is that awful inane botslop style.
I avoided Linkedin for many years before finally breaking down and signing up while job hunting. If you had shown me the actual feed content out of context and asked if it was real or satire I would have guessed satire. So much of the content that gets posted is such an absurd cliche it's self-parodying.
The problem is that everybody is told they need to have LinkedIn to get a job in the current market. My college's career department told me I was not going to succeed without it, so I reluctantly created a profile. But I don't want to have one!
Art, I tell you, its art. Now with AI.
