Similar thing happened to me. Randomly one of my LinkedIn posts got a ton of likes, so I figured I would look through the list of people who liked and try to figure out where they were coming from/if they would be interesting to reach out to.

After viewing a 100 or so profiles, I was logged out of LinkedIn and when I tried to log back in my account was suspended. I was in LinkedIn jail for like a week, and when I was finally able to login again I got the automatic tool warning and had to agree that I wouldn’t use one again (even though I never had used one).


they did the same to me just by going through the job listings and x-ing out the ones that I wasn't interested in. of course for some reason that doesn't really work, the keep coming back, but wth, might as well try to keep down the noise.

you have been suspended for the use of automation


An aside, but…

> of course for some reason that doesn't really work, the keep coming back

What the heck is that about? It’s deeply frustrating.


This is super fun! I tried something similar a few months ago using: https://websim.com/

Had it do HN main feed, HN jobs and Product Hunt. It didn’t follow consistent styling but did generate articles and comments for each post. Some screenshots are in this post: https://world.hey.com/haws/the-ai-time-machine-7833669d


Nat Friedman estimated that if we stopped developing new models today, we’d have 5-10 years worth of innovation to tap into before we’d need more models.


A number he pulled out of his ass.
