LinkedIn Asked You To Train Their AI

They pushed the "You're one of a few experts invited to answer" notifications for a long time - maybe a year, I don't remember. When I had enough and started to capture them with the intent of mockery, they stopped. So sad. Here's what I got:

"You're facing pushback from vendors on cloud integration. How can you convince them to collaborate?"

"You're focused on cutting costs in cloud computing. How do you ensure security protocols aren't compromised?"

"You're overseeing a code review process. How do you ensure feedback boosts developer morale?"

What a dystopia. LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft, so I'm not suprised someone in a giant corporation thought this sort of nonsense was a good idea. But still, the future is stupid, and all that.

P.S. The notification inserts were non-persistent — inserted on the fly. That was just fraud w.r.t. the idea of notification ticker.

P.P.S. Does anyone else think that this sort of thing would cause self-selection? They made their AI trained by the most vain and also least bright members of their user population. I'm not an expert in any of these fields.

UPDATE 2024-10-31: Spoke too soon! They hit me with the notificantion insert: "Here's how you can craft a personalized learning plan for advancing in Cloud Computing." That is not even a formed question. Getting lazy, are we?

UPDATE 2024-11-02: "You're facing budget disputes over cloud solutions. How can you align IT and non-technical teams effectively?" They are not stopping.

Meanwhile, how about another perspective: I saw an update that Hubbert Smith contributed an answer to: "You're facing a ransomware attack crisis. How do you convey the severity to a non-technical executive?" Instead of answering what LinkedIn AI asked, he answered a question of how to deal with ransomware ("Ransomware is fixable with snapshots of sensitive data."). Unless he is an AI himself, he may be thinking that he's dealing with a LinkedIn equivalent of Quora.

I'm trying to ask him what happened.
