Who are Top AI Sources to follow on LinkedIn?
Part I: I take my first preliminary look into this, for the first time in years.
👋 Hey there, I’m Mike. Each week I share AI articles at the intersection of tech, business, society and the future. If you want to support the channel or gain full-access to my work, go here.

Good Morning
Over the years I’ve spent an absurd amount of time on LinkedIn, for work. Hopefully you don’t have to. But the time you do spend there, should be optimized to bring you the right or best information.
The following list took me a lot of time to hand-pick and curate carefully. Over the coming weeks I plan to refine and expand upon it. I wanted to find the most valuable LinkedIn posters about AI. It’s getting a little bit tricky.
According to Pangram, one in four social media posts are now fully synthetic or AI generated. Of all posts they flagged as AI-generated, two-thirds came from LinkedIn. That’s not to say LinkedIn isn’t useful for networking and for AI News. I wanted to look into who are some of the top people to follow for AI Enthusiasts. This article will be my first humble attempt to do so in quite a while.
According to their report, Substack is the “most human” and LinkedIn is the least. This is not an endorsement (or sponsor) but if you want to try their Chrome extension you can do so here.
LinkedIn has the most longform AI Content; Substack the Least
Pangram claims that only 53.2% of long-form posts on X are identified as being written entirely by humans, even Satya Nadella (see blog version) or Demis Hassabi’s PR looks AI generated. I’m really not that AGI-pilled to overlook this, it’s hardly readable. LinkedIn prides itself on professionals who are credible and the platform has improved a lot in connecting you to your (search) intent, while helping you to track AI News and AI related industry topics is my aim in this list. So if you are more interested in AI at the intersection of your profession, product, marketing, management, AI infrastructure (datacenters), energy, big technology, or whatever else, you can find it.
Beyond the AI Slop
If you are news obsessed and want to stay in touch with the beat around AI, you will have to try to look beyond the slop.
Why Care about the Linkedin Feed for AI?
Not all interesting sources of AI News frequent LinkedIn but a sizeable number do. Especially specialized consultants, venture capitalists, niche creators and educational sources.
The variety of insights if you curate a good feed can be helpful to give a holistic (and global) picture of what is going on. They are delivering insights on a regular basis that are easier to digest and not always found in Newsletters.
(None of the links in this list are endorsements, promotions or affiliates).
Although I have made an effort to include Newsletter writers and European sources.
If you follow these AI sources on LinkedIn, I believe it will improve the quality of your feed to stay in touch with the industry. While I do my best to not include AI executives or VC type figures, some of them do curate great AI News tidbits. I also tried to balance the list away from technical ML topics but to include new developments like datacenter, energy and AI infra considerations. Overall the list is curated for a general reader that is seeking to keep up with the latest AI News with a selection of sources from many angles.
Preliminary Top 2025 AI LinkedIn List
These are my favorite and top picks for LinkedIn sources to follow for AI enthusiasts to improve your feed. This is not an exhaustive list but can substantially improve your access to the latest information relating to the AI industry even if you are only an occasional user of the LinkedIn platform.
You can save or bookmark this article, or simply take the few minutes required to follow the recommended AI sources below: the list section links called Posts takes you to their latest posts where you can judge for yourself if they are good for a follow.
This article list basically took me the majority of the week to put together. As such it’s going to be exclusively for paid readers of this publication.
There are obviously thousands of decent AI sources on LinkedIn, but if you could only pick a few which are the most informative, useful, inspiring, factual and educational for a general AI enthusiast and reader? This is what I set out to do.
