LinkedIn turns your profile, posts, and activity into training data for its generative-AI features, and the setting is on by default. Turning it off stops future use of your data for that purpose.

Steps

  1. Open Settings & Privacy from your profile menu.
  2. Go to Data privacy.
  3. Open Data for Generative AI Improvement.
  4. Toggle Use my data for training content-creation AI models to Off.

The change applies going forward; LinkedIn states it does not undo past training.
