Re: Re: Collaborative Articles on LinkedIn - Thoughts?

As if on cue, I saw this on LinkedIn today:

Quote from Joseph Perry:

LinkedIn laid off their entire content team and is now trying to trick you
into doing their work for free because Microsoft over invested in AI. That
is why you've been "invited to contribute to this collaborative article." I
promise LinkedIn doesn't actually value your credentials. Don't give social
media companies free labor.

Wellâ maybe I wonât be so free with providing my content.
