It’s hilarious to think of LinkedIn as useful conversational data for an LLM… LinkedIn content… The majority of direct messaging is recruiting spam and almost the entirety of the public posts and replies are so vapid, inane, fake and performative as to be borderline damaging to the mental health of anyone that doesn’t realise it’s all performative bullshit, a business positivism LARP or MUD wrapped in a kayfabe of having anything to do with real business people doing business things… the quality of a model trained on that dataset would be… horrific.
