This Saturday, an interview with Reid Hoffman, a Silicon Valley figure who invests in AI. France is the 5th country in the world with the most members on the LinkedIn platform. Launched in 2002 and initially used as a networking tool for professionals, LinkedIn is evolving with the times. Written publications now give way to videos, and users have made it a social network in its own right, even a dating app for some. This month, a study by the French company Influence Metrics has tarnished the human ambition of the network since after analyzing 20,000 publications published on this network, it appears that 61% of them were written by machines. Bland and redundant publications, soulless career advice... This content produced by generative artificial intelligence seems to be shaped to please algorithms more than humans. To keep users in the LinkedIn environment, AI writing tools are even offered by the platform with the purchase of a Premium subscription. This year, artificial assistance has become essential in tech. The latest adventure of Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn, is also an artificial intelligence startup. The entrepreneur played a key role in Silicon Valley: after co-creating PayPal in 1998 with Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, he launched and ran LinkedIn for a time, invested in the early days of Facebook and Airbnb, etc. Today, the billionaire sees AI as an opportunity to shape our society.
