    I had to use it a year ago while job hunting after getting my degree. The absolute vomit inducing bullshit on there is baffling. I saw posts from students circlejerking about projects they'd done, making them sound completely groundbreaking while barely getting a passing grade, all completely written by AI. It was always just a way to masturbate your ego, but now you're not even supposed to do the masturbation yourself, you just get an AI to do everything for you, completely blowing up mediocrity to sound like genius.

    I don't get the point of the site anymore. Literally nothing posted there is genuine. If anything, it just shows recruiters how utterly incompetent and braindead the person is.

    That’s what happens when you have an enhance-with-AI button as part of your posting tool. Then pair that with a platform for circlejerking corporate people.

    LinkedIn has never been known for having any sort of intelligence.

    Makes sense, the Venn diagram of LinkedIn lunatics and AI sycophants is effectively a fucking circle
