I had ChatGPT Scrape r/LinkedInLunatics to Find the Most Used LinkedIn Slop Words

Fine. You want me to use AI. I’ll at least use it to make me laugh, roll my eyes, or find ways to cut through the garbage. That being said, I had ChatGPT scrape the LinkedIn posts that were shared/flamed/roasted in the r/LinkedInLunatics subreddit in the last year to see what words were used the most.
Hilariously, the top words were:
- Hustle
- Founder
- Leadership
- CEO
- Mindset
Ironically, “authentic” is in there as well.
Of course, these were just the posts that caused enough of a reaction that someone screenshot it and posted it on a completely separate site, but we can agree that LinkedIn vernacular has veered away from natural human language.
So how will I use this? When everyone has access to tools that shape our narratives, I want to know what NOT to say to stand out more. So don’t be like this word cloud and use a thesaurus.
