LinkedIn Uses User Data to Train Microsoft, OpenAI AI Models Without Explicit Consent
Sep 18, 2024, 04:33 PM
LinkedIn has confirmed that it is using user data to train AI models by default, including those of Microsoft and OpenAI. This practice has been implemented without explicit user consent and applies to a large share of LinkedIn's 800 million users, except for those in the EU and Switzerland. Users can opt out of this setting, which is turned on by default under 'Data for Generative AI Improvement'. LinkedIn updated its terms of service after starting this data usage, raising concerns about transparency and privacy. Other tech companies like Meta and X have also been criticized for similar practices. This information was reported by TechCrunch and 404 Media.
