LinkedIn Uses User Data to Train AI Models for Microsoft, OpenAI Without Consent
Sep 18, 2024, 05:20 PM
LinkedIn has begun using user data to train its AI models, including those of Microsoft and OpenAI, without explicit user consent. This change was implemented without updating the platform's terms of service, which LinkedIn states will be updated shortly. Users have been automatically opted in to this data usage, but can opt out by adjusting their settings. This policy does not apply to users in the EU and Switzerland. The move has raised significant privacy concerns, as users were not informed prior to the implementation. This affects LinkedIn's 800 million users.
