LinkedIn Uses User Data to Train AI Models for Microsoft, OpenAI by Default
Sep 18, 2024, 06:00 PM
LinkedIn has updated its AI training policy to use user data by default without explicit consent. The platform is utilizing this data to train its own AI models, as well as those of Microsoft and OpenAI, before updating its terms of service. Users have noticed a new setting, 'Data for Generative AI Improvement,' which is turned on by default, allowing LinkedIn and its affiliates to use personal data for AI training. This setting can be turned off through the privacy settings. The policy does not apply to users in the EU and Switzerland. LinkedIn has stated that it will update its terms of service shortly and is ensuring that users with specific privacy preferences can opt out. This change affects LinkedIn's 800 million users.
