Ah, LinkedIn, exactly where I want to get nuanced answers to weird questions from.
There is a large collection of poorly written articles/blogs on LinkedIn, actually. They are just bad enough to be good enough for Google.
Strangely enough, LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft. If Microsoft actually let Google use it as a data source, it was to sabotage Google’s AI training.
Do we have Linkedin Lunatics on reddit?
It’s never too late to take up shitposting on LinkedIn.
You mean… LinkedIn? If there’s any site that perfects the shitpost, it’s LinkedIn. Everyone is bullshitting their pants off there.
It’s an honour and a privilege to tell you how awesome I am.
Dude, do you know how much ass I beat at my last gig? It was tremendous (parts hands away from myself).
Do people ever post real content there…? I’m concerned if so
“wait what if someone asks a question and Google AI quickly directs that person to the most relevant resources. Now wouldn’t that be a great innovation.”

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The SEO marketing platform analyzed 100,000 keywords in June and found Reddit was no longer in the top 10 linked domains in Google’s AI Overviews.
One incident included when it told a user to put glue on pizza to keep the cheese intact — a suggestion that seems to have been based on a Reddit comment more than a decade ago.
SE Ranking’s study also shows that LinkedIn, Wikipedia, and YouTube are in third, fourth, and sixth positions of the top 10 linked domains, respectively.
The SEO tool provider carried out a similar study in February before Google rolled out the AI feature to the public, which found that the overviews included many snippets from forums Reddit and Quora.
Google showed significantly fewer AI Overviews, previously called SGE (Search Generative Experience), in the June study than it did in February.
Liz Reid, the Search VP, addressed the pizza glue fiasco at a recent all-hands meeting, according to audio obtained by CNBC, saying the company would not “hold back features” if there were “occasional problems.”
The original article contains 333 words, the summary contains 174 words. Saved 48%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Well, here’s the part where I hope people are able to make a Wikipedia alternative so we can turn Wikipedia into a cesspool to ensure the enshitification of gøøg|e. That, and if I ever get a Wikipedia article made about me (which will probably never happen), I’m signing up with an account and absolutely trashing it to say things that will cause whatever any AI looking at it to spout the most absurd shit.
man ur really sticking it to em huh
