LinkedIn is the latest company to use your data to train generative AI models. If you’re concerned about your personal information being used for this purpose, LinkedIn provides an option to opt out of AI training.
### How to Opt Out of LinkedIn AI Training
LinkedIn uses the personal data and content you create on its platform to train generative AI models. However, you can disable this feature by adjusting a setting in your LinkedIn account. Here’s how:
1. Log in to your LinkedIn account.
2. Click on your profile picture at the top right corner.
3. Select **Settings & Privacy** from the dropdown menu.
4. In the left sidebar, click on **Data privacy**.
5. Find and select the option labeled **Data for Generative AI Improvement**.
6. Toggle the switch next to **“Use my data for training content creation AI models”** to the **off** position.
LinkedIn has a dedicated help page explaining how it uses generative AI to create content. It’s important to note that turning off this setting will prevent LinkedIn from using your data for AI training going forward, but it will not affect any training that has already occurred.
By following these steps, you can take control of your data and prevent it from being used in LinkedIn’s AI model training.
