LinkedIn’s recent embrace of AI technology has sparked discussions about its effectiveness, especially concerning AI-generated post suggestions. CEO Ryan Roslansky revealed on June 22, 2025, that these features haven’t gained the traction he anticipated.
- AI-generated post suggestions less popular
- Higher posting barriers on LinkedIn
- Backlash impacts economic opportunities
- Surge in AI-related job requirements
- Users increasingly adding AI skills
- CEO uses AI for professional communication
Roslansky explained that the stakes are higher on LinkedIn, as users are cautious about how AI-generated content may affect their professional image. Unlike platforms like TikTok, where casual backlash is common, a misstep on LinkedIn can significantly impact one’s career opportunities.
This raises an important question: why are professionals hesitant to adopt AI tools in a space designed for career advancement? The implications are noteworthy:
- Increased demand for AI skills in job postings.
- Potential barriers to AI adoption in professional settings.
- Concerns over authenticity and backlash on LinkedIn.
Looking ahead, professionals should consider how to balance AI tools with personal authenticity to thrive in an increasingly digital job market.
