I have the impression that we are already in the middle of the wave of AI-generated/optimized content. Even here on LinkedIn, I’m seeing more and more messages coming around the corner that are pretty much “streamlined” and “thanks to AI” are apparently perfectly aligned with the LinkedIn algorithm.
There are even many who brag about how easily they can now automatically generate 30 posts from a single sentence using AI and how much time this saves.
And these are our new content creators? Seriously? Have you ever thought about what’s happening here?
đĒđļđŋ đđ˛đŋđšđļđ˛đŋđ˛đģ đ´đ˛đŋđŽđąđ˛ đąđ˛đģ đĨđ˛đđ đđģđąđļđđļđąđđŽđšđļđđŽĖđ đđģđą đ đ˛đģđđ°đĩđšđļđ°đĩđ¸đ˛đļđ đđģđą đĖđ¯đ˛đŋđ´đ˛đ¯đ˛đģ đļđĩđģ đļđģ đąđļđ˛ đđŽĖđģđąđ˛ đ˛đļđģđ˛đŋ đđ, which does everything it can to write posts in such a way that they achieve maximum reach, can be processed by the algorithm as optimally as possible and thus generate as many followers, likes or comments as possible.
I firmly believe that all this AI-generated content will become very boring very quickly and that those who continue to make the effort to publish personal, “real”, authentic news are more important and relevant to any community than the pure masses.
Aren’t we here to connect as human beings with other “real” people? Isn’t it all about the extraordinary, the rough edges, the individuality?
During the holidays, I therefore decided for myself: đąđ˛đŋ đđļđģđ¸đ˛đąđđģ-đđšđ´đŧđŋđļđđĩđēđđ đ¸đŽđģđģđģ đēđļđ°đĩ đēđŽđš!
I will continue to write what I feel like writing, what keeps me busy, what, when and how often I think it’s important. And if someone doesn’t like it, they don’t have to read it or like it – at least that’s đ˛đĩđŋđšđļđ°đĩ đđģđą đŽđđđĩđ˛đģđđļđđ°đĩ. And I can work wonderfully with it!
In general, I am firmly convinced that 2025 will already be the year in which “đđĸđĨđĻ-đđē-đđļđŽđĸđ¯” becomes a quality feature – with / or precisely because of all the rough edges!

With this in mind: happy new year!

P.S.: Why am I writing this? I tried out a lot of things on LinkedIn last year and realized how quickly you can lose your authenticity. I don’t want that anymore. I no longer want to write, like or comment on posts just because the algorithm then recognizes that I was online and my own profile gets more reach as a result. I want to write / link because I think something is great and for no other reason!
