When Is LinkedIn Going to Start Using My Data to Train Its AI Models?
LinkedIn has announced that it will start using some of its users’ data to train its AI models starting on November 3rd, 2025. Users from the EU, EEA, Switzerland, Canada, and Hong Kong will all be affected. At this stage, US users will not be affected, but this could soon change.
With this decision, LinkedIn will join the likes of Meta, X, Reddit, and more, in harvesting user data for the training of their AI models. Memorably, Meta was instructed to stop this practice following a mandate from the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. It resumed the practice not long after.
