AI-generated content floods LinkedIn and X, data suggests · 2 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

New data from Pangram, a company specializing in AI writing detection, indicates a significant presence of AI-generated content across major social media platforms. The analysis, based on a Chrome extension used by nearly a million users, found that up to 41% of longform content on LinkedIn and approximately one-third of longer posts on X are likely AI-generated. This trend is particularly pronounced in professional settings, where users appear more willing to use AI to represent them, and affects longer-form content more heavily across all studied platforms, including Reddit and Substack. AI
