Over ½ of Long Posts on LinkedIn are Likely AI-Generated Since ChatGPT Launched
We have likely all experienced the same feeling on LinkedIn within the last couple of years… seeing a long-form post and suspecting it of being AI-generated but the author is passing it off as their own thought leadership.
In this study, we look at the impact of ChatGPT and other generative AI tools on the volume of AI content that is being published on LinkedIn.
Our process was to analyze 8,795 LinkedIn long-form posts using our AI detector to determine if the post was likely AI-generated or likely human-written. The study spanned content published over an 82-month period from January 2018 to October 2024, which we analyzed to identify trends in AI usage. These long-form posts contain at least 100 words and were curated from different LinkedIn users on the platform.
Our AI detector is the most accurate AI detector on the market and has been verified by both our own study and 8 published 3rd party studies.
