Are you a LinkedIn Top IC Voice? Could your answers feed into a LLM where an IC expert AI Agent could be a reality for businesses?

Thank you for contributing and sharing your knowledge and experience. It's great we are contributing to interesting internal communications questions as a community and seeing many great answers and examples: different views, similar views, thought-provoking ideas and supportive guidance.

Our answers are attributed to us. From newbies to experienced and seasoned comms folk, so many can and are benefiting from the knowledge sharing and conversations started.

I'm just putting this out there. LinkedIn is part of Microsoft, and they have partnered with OpenAI. Having trustworthy knowledge and information is the vital currency for Large Language Models (LLM) to feed and train AI.

Effectively, LinkedIn's gamification and badging programme which collects great practice in terms of knowledge and examples and awarding badges in return is a simple way of gathering our collective experience in an organised way.

The more questions we contribute to, the more we get recognition for ourselves, which is a good thing, as well as helping and inspiring interested others. We're proud of the recognition. Lots of benefits and being part of relevant conversations in a structured way: https://www.dhirubhai.net/pulse/make-2023-your-year-top-voice-linkedin-leesa-soulodre/

A pause for thought

• What will LinkedIn do with this collected data?
• How will it be used? Are there plans to incorporate this information into a LLM?
• Could AI Agents be created from this and used as a commercial business offering?
• If that is the case, will there be attribution and potential compensation?

At the end of the day, what we share is in the public space, and we share overviews, views and opinions rather than detailed specific answers. The benefits for ourselves and our community outweigh any AI-related worries.

This was just something that was on my mind as we travel this brave new AI world together.
