AI writes 41% LinkedIn posts, 25% X posts fully.

A new study suggests that about half of all long social media posts are now either fully or partly written by AI, especially on LinkedIn and X. AI detection platform Pangram analysed over a million posts, drawing on data voluntarily provided by users via its Chrome extension. LinkedIn had 41% of its longform content fully AI-generated, while X had 25% fully AI-authored and an extra 23.2% written with AI help.
