LinkedIn has stopped using data from UK users to teach its AI models because a regulator had concerns. The regulator, called the ICO, is happy that LinkedIn has paused using UK users’ information. LinkedIn wants to talk more with the ICO. Users in the UK can choose to not have their data used for AI training. Big tech companies like LinkedIn are using user-generated content to train AI tools. These tools learn from lots of text and image data. LinkedIn believes users should control their data. Other social platforms like Meta and X also use content for AI tools but face privacy rules. Meta stopped using UK adults’ data for AI training after criticism. The ICO will monitor Microsoft and LinkedIn to ensure user data rights are protected. The company must clarify its process before starting again. The public’s trust in privacy rights is important.
