I love that the control is "cringe", you must of had a blast scraping and rating posts! I don't know if "I took my clothes off and started a new job." is even cringe as much as its an unintended? I dont do alot of linkedin - do people actually post things like that? https://imgur.com/a/zJuIKbQ https://imgur.com/a/zJuIKbQ

  Can't say I've seen "take off my clothes and started a new job" but I've seen a lot of cringe. There's always something cringe and quite sad imo. Just a few days ago we had the crying CEO.

  Well this one seems like a miss from the AI, but yes people do post things like this and even way worse. You can check out /r/LinkedInLunatics on Reddit.

I would make the text actually be shareable. I just got a brilliant one and I'd love to share it on LinkedIn as a sort of meme. Here's what I got. https://i.imgur.com/vtfvTPv.png https://i.imgur.com/vtfvTPv.png

  This is actually less cringe than some of the stuff that appeared in my LinkedIn-feed today.

    #influencer pushed it over the edge for me.

  You can copy the text if you're willing to use inspect element and drill down the HTML.

    Oh yeah, but what I mean is, he could make it "shareable", have a button to share the text have some hashtag, link, you know, viral market the tool and mock #influencers

The "AI" of this seems pretty pretty limited, I mean, '90s level AI aka "templating with random sentences from a small set".

  Clearly a meta commentary on how most LinkedIn posts follow the same formula.

  The last hashtag on this one, generated from the verb I used, makes me think there may be a little more than that. It turned out unexpectedly honest: https://imgur.com/a/iQ0QOFO https://imgur.com/a/iQ0QOFO

    I have already closed mine but I put "I want a pay raise" and the CEO gave it to me and then I got fired, with the same exact phrasing like another example posted here. (I didn't look at the hashtags carefully, truth be told)

The ones linked in these comments are hilarious. Sadly it is not working for me right now, probably exceeded some kind of quota. EDIT: I did some testing; it seems to work fine for me on desktop Firefox, but not on my iPhone.

>On my first day in this company, I scratched my ass publicly >Yes, I scratched my ass in front of EVERYONE in the office. >My managers reaction? >They stood up for me and supported me. They could have shoved me through the exit door, but they chose not to. >Today, I finally asked them why. >Their response: >"If you can scratch my ass like that, you can also go big" >I'm crying here. It is in fact a coherent story and also seems like something you would actually see on LinkedIn. Obviously went with maximum cringe.

Love it: > It's only 10:47... but I already: > 1. wiped my own ass > 2. shared it via livestream > 3. wrote an E-book about the time I wiped my own ass > 4. launched a new online course on how to wipe my own ass (pssst... a little secret: my students learn to wipe other things as well) > 5. Made $80K passive income > What have YOU done today? > Do you buy toilet paper? > Agree? Thoughts?

Doesn't open for me at the moment, but I'd like to remind you of the best LinkedIn parody, possibly the best parody of a social network in general, the hilarious ShlinkedIn: https://www.shlinkedin.com https://www.shlinkedin.com ... where you can create an account and post stuff!

Ah, another service that would benefit from being behind a CDN.
