Artificial intelligence is finally out of kindergarten. For a while, let’s confess it, we taped every crayon drawing to the fridge — generic copy that stuffed feeds with bland, top-level advice and once-effective influencer tropes — simply because we were proud we had added those relevant hashtags with AI technology. 

Alas, we’re all getting pretty tired of AI slop, so generating a 5-step morning routine simply doesn’t cut it anymore, at least not if your goal is to create engaging content.

Ready to retire the fridge art workflows and ship engaging LinkedIn posts that respect your audience — tuned to role, region and real pain? Then this guide shows you how to do it.

Why Ask ChatGPT or Some Other Platform To Generate Social Media Copy To Begin With?

If you’ve been browsing LinkedIn content lately, you may have noticed a shift. Maybe you’ve seen founders demonstrating workflows to prove ROI rather than sharing their not-so-engaging thoughts on leadership (or should we say, their viral post generator’s thoughts?). 

Perhaps it was a creator linking to initial research investigating potential damages of AI use.

Basically, we as a species seem to arrive at a point where we don’t accept anything as inherently good or bad solely because it was generated. So it’s only natural if you’re still hesitant to hand over your business page (or your CEO’s account) to an AI-powered writing tool. Keep in mind, though, that we’re not talking about 100% automation and that there are good reasons to consider AI for your content creation workflows.

Let’s go through the reasons why you might use a LinkedIn creator platform for your content marketing — one by one.

1. Because LinkedIn Post Formats Are Trendy — and Timing Matters

Post formats, like fashion, cycle. Carousels and native documents may be hot today. Tomorrow it might be a 9-second explainer video with burned-in captions. Even the folks at the LinkedIn Corporation likely don’t know, because they keep tweaking the algorithm based on content users react to the most. 

A LinkedIn post generator helps you keep pace without guessing. It can also propose the best format per idea, translate a 900-word doc into a 7-frame carousel or flip a carousel back into a tight video script, including an engaging caption.

With 38% of consumers expecting brands to show up on whichever platform they use, staying on top of the latest trends can become challenging. With the right AI tool, you can ship the right asset at the right time, not the right format two months too late.

2. Because LinkedIn Rewards Relevance and Dwell Time

We may have gotten technologically advanced, but deep down, we haven’t changed. Neanderthals had caves, we have feeds. The rules are the same, though. Earn trust with useful finds and earn time with a story that makes people linger. What’s changed is that the Neanderthal had to pick the non-poisonous berries, and your brand needs to show on-topic value. Whether you do it with an AI powered tool or not, whether it’s on LinkedIn or another social media platform — have SMEs bring the berries. Then, you can let AI help them light the fire with hooks, prompts and credible counterpoints. That gets you a compelling post the LinkedIn audience and your professional network will enjoy.

3. Because Personalization at Scale Isn’t Optional Anymore

Whether you like AI or want to see all bots burn on a pyre, generative AI in marketing is now mainstream. The upside, currently, isn’t infinite words — it’s words framed specifically for the right audience. Your team can spin role-based variants to flip the CFO’s post into one for the VP of Engineering, swap examples per vertical and adjust the jargon dial, so it reads the way they’d talk. The downside, if you miss that opportunity, is that readers will soon expect that level of customization and behind-the-scenes insight. After all, if you’re not doing it, your competitors might. Done right, the copy feels written for one person, not blasted at 10,000, and that should be the goal with any AI initiative.

4. Because A Comment Engine Is Demand Gen In Disguise

Thoughtful commenting is still the most reliable way to grow on LinkedIn. How do I know that, you ask?

Once again, we could point to the developers and founders sharing their stats on LinkedIn itself. And if that’s not good enough, we can still rely on LinkedIn’s own engineers explaining how dwell time influences algorithm updates or how it ranks comments.

You don’t need to know all the technicalities, but understand that some level of active engagement online should be part of your business routine. And yes, AI can surface posts from your ICP, summarize the thread, pull in your company’s relevant asset or case stat and draft a value-adding comment that moves the conversation forward — not a pitch, but a presence. Do that daily and your “inbound” graph edges up.

5. Because Multilingual ≠ Copy-Pasted Translations

“Can’t read, won’t buy” is real. 65% of users prefer content in their language. As a German living in Italy, I’ve seen more than one angry tourist storm off, and only in some cases could I save the day with a quick translation. I’m not saying that to flex, but to show you how an offer in the wrong language may not only hinder the translation a client was hoping for but harm your reputation.

On the flipside, some companies have seen a 40% increase in response rates to outreach campaigns when experimenting with messages in local dialects.

And while you need to watch out for a few pitfalls, AI makes it practical to localize your top posts into Italian, German or Japanese with region-appropriate examples, not just swapped nouns. That means more resonance, more replies and fewer awkward idioms.

6. Because Advocacy Works When It’s Organized

Employees out-network company pages. With AI, you can create role-specific, compliant snippets that teammates personalize in 30 seconds, then queue in a first-hour boost window. It’s coordinated, not choreographed — real voices amplified on purpose.

Where your Marketing Director gets “speed without losing control,” your intern might still get “frameworks” that helped them understand the industry. 

So, Which LinkedIn Post Generator Is “the Best”?

Short answer: the best one is the one that fits your operating model, not just your prompt. We’ve discussed dedicated generators at length; for a deeper dive, check out this post. Here’s the field at a glance:

contentmarketing.ai

ChatGPT

Philosophy: Generalist with a great library card.

Where it shines: Prompt libraries, tone transfer, quick repurposing from doc → carousel script → video hook. Pair with your own guardrails and checklist so the “generalist” stays on brand.

LinkedIn’s Built-In Tools (Yes, They Exist)

Philosophy: Convenience where you work.

Where it shines: In-app assistance for post rewrites, resumes and ideation. Useful for quick touch-ups without leaving the platform.

How To Choose

  1. Map your bottleneck. Is it idea velocity, versioning, brand control or approvals?
  2. Pick the platform that eliminates that bottleneck first.
  3. Add automation only after your core workflow is stable.

LinkedIn Growth Strategies Beyond the Carousel Hype

Carousels are table stakes. Growth this year is coming from three flywheels and one lever most teams ignore.

1) Newsletters: Turn “Nice Post” Into “New Subscriber”

Since early 2025, creators can see real email sends and open rates inside LinkedIn analytics. Treat that like an owned channel hiding in plain sight. Use AI to:

  • A/B test subject lines and preview text before you publish.
  • Match newsletter topics to your highest-engagement posts and comments.
  • Promote winners as sponsored articles when the data justifies it.

Benchmark against your typical email opens and CTR to prove lift.

2) Collaborative Articles: Durable Pull, Not Just Push

These AI-seeded prompts match to your Skills Graph and can earn you Top Voice. Have AI monitor new prompts weekly, draft experience-based answers, then link a relevant case, chart or code snippet. It’s a time-boxed, compounding visibility play.

3) Comment-Led ABM: Quietly Loud, Measurably Useful

Build a list of 50 target accounts. Let AI rank posts by decision-maker, intent signal and recency. Add 1 credible example from your world. Comment daily. Track assists: profile visits, follows, replies from target titles. If you’re running enterprise plays, tie assists to pipeline created — you’ll be surprised how well this correlates.

4) Employee Advocacy, But Timed

AI can stagger staff posts ±60 minutes around a flagship post to concentrate early, meaningful engagement — the period most tied to second-degree distribution. Give people a 3-sentence template plus a “make it yours” prompt and one question to ask. That’s enough structure to coordinate, not enough to sanitize. That way, we all don’t have to live through another boring executive thought leadership post that seems to be written by the intern who joined the team yesterday.

What’s Next? And How Will We Look Back on AI-Powered Content Generation in a Few Years?

So, you’re ready to get cracking and automate everything from your next LinkedIn post to your intern’s out-of-office haiku. Tempting. Before you spin up the robot factory, here’s what’s about to change — and how you’ll talk about 2025 when it’s in the rearview.

The Regulatory Reality Will Shape Your Prompts

I know, it’s not the sexiest topic to open with, but there’s no way around it. The EU AI Act begins phasing in obligations through 2025–2026, with other regions already drafting similar regulations in parallel. Whether your organization operates in these countries usually doesn’t matter, because your clients do. So, expect more content credentials (C2PA) labels on AI imagery and video — even on LinkedIn — plus internal “source of truth” logs for claims. Translation: add a lightweight “claims + sources” section to your prompts now. It’ll save you rework later and it’s good practice anyway.

LinkedIn’s Push To Video Will Feel Obvious In Hindsight

And now, for something more entertaining. Between creator shows and ad products, 2025–26 is the moment LinkedIn becomes a serious B2B video platform. Teams that bank scripts, captions and cutdowns with AI will look prescient. If you have a carousel that crushed, script it into a 60-second “explain it to a smart friend” video and test.

The Algorithm Is Drifting Toward Expertise and Measurable Outcomes

With recent tweaks that resurface older but relevant posts, durable how-to content and measurable outcomes will outlast trend bait. Show your numbers — “100 demo requests, 3 hires, 1-week onboarding” — and let AI help with the analytics, not the authenticity.

The Quality Bar Will Keep Rising

Just when you thought fitness influencers in your feed were already giving you a bad conscience, marketers are joining in on AI slob shaming. As we discussed, feeds in 2023–24 were saturated with same-y AI posts. Some research suggests AI use on LinkedIn jumped 189% during that time. The winners responded by compressing production time with AI and expanding originality with lived experience. That pattern holds. Your edge isn’t “AI.” Your edge is you — the case detail nobody else has, the diagram from your last fail, the sentence that only your team can write.

You don’t need to “be an influencer.” You need to be reliably authentic in public. AI can help you do that faster and at a standard your audience deserves — if you have a strategy.

Remember, we’re out of kindergarten. Pointing at others who jumped off the bridge won’t help. Jump if you want, but only to show how you can outswim the others.
