LinkedIn is the latest company to use your data for training generative AI models. If you’re concerned about privacy and want to opt out, here’s how you can disable AI training on your LinkedIn account.
### How to Opt Out of LinkedIn AI Training
LinkedIn uses your personal data and the content you create on its platform to train generative AI models. Fortunately, you have control over whether your data is used for this purpose. To opt out, follow these steps:
1. Log in to your LinkedIn account.
2. Click your profile picture at the top right corner.
3. Select **Settings & Privacy** from the dropdown menu.
4. In the left-hand menu, click on **Data privacy**.
5. Find and click the option labeled **Data for Generative AI Improvement**.
6. Toggle the switch beside **Use my data for training content creation AI models** to the **off** position.
By disabling this setting, you prevent LinkedIn from using your data for training AI models going forward.
### What You Should Know
LinkedIn provides a dedicated help page explaining how it uses generative AI to create content. It’s important to note that turning off AI training does not affect any training that has already taken place with your data; it only stops future use.
Taking this simple step can help you maintain greater control over your personal information while still enjoying LinkedIn’s features.
