LinkedIn Opts To Use AI Assistance To Expand On Its Content Through A Program Called Collaborative Articles
LinkedIn has opted to start using AI for content expansion and it's planning on doing this via a new initiative that’s dubbed Collaborative Articles.
The
whole idea behind it has to do with calling on some particular users
that it feels carry the right skills and input. As mentioned by the
social media giant, such articles start as great conversation starters
that are powered by AI. Moreover, they’re created with assistance from
its editorial team.
After that, every article is matched using
the app’s Skills Graph to the right number of skilled experts that can
provide lessons, advice, and anecdotes depending on what professional
experience they have. This is the point in time when the real magic
happens.
Professionals are now sharing real advice by putting
forward their insights on work queries that we’re dealing with on a
usual basis. Remember, beginning a chat is always a tougher step than
joining right into one. Therefore, such collaborations make it so much
simpler for experts to unite and go ahead with better ideas. And that is
how knowledge is shared and created.
As can be witnessed by the
example put forward by LinkedIn, such ventures would be showcased in the
app’s feed. This would entail notes on the exact figures of members
that put ahead their contributions. You can then witness contributor
elements that are showcased in a particular article.
Similarly, there are buttons to include perspectives for pieces designed through AI technology.
The
app really hopes this would encourage so many more of its members to
get greater exposure to the skills and experience they require on the
platform. Similarly, it would assist them in adding more connections and
followers on the platform.
To further enable this, the app is
adding a new badge called Community Top Voice for key designated areas
linked to Collaborative Articles. This provides more information and
incentives to professionals for their respective contributions in terms
of advice and experience. Such badges also have a validity of just two
months and members would be required to continue contributing to such
endeavors so they retain recognition.
This is definitely an
incentive that is worthwhile and you can only think how such moves would
ensure members keep on adding their respective input to as many
collaborations as they need or want.
Today, AI tools are putting
in the right prompts and really designing articles that are low
maintenance and allow for better app engagement. As it is, the latter is
already getting so many highs each quarter.
LinkedIn’s parent
company which is software giant Microsoft, claims it’s going full
throttle in terms of generative AI. The goal is to design advances to
such searches and attract huge interest while enabling big integrations
for ChatGPT. It similarly sparks more usage options on other tools.
All
of this really does make sense how the app hopes to get into the same
line and with time, it might be the first of so many different
integrations that are powered using AI technology in the future.
