Grimes Launches LinkedIn Profile and Nvidia Film Amid AI Platform Criticism
Electronic musician Grimes, also known as Claire Boucher, has created a profile on LinkedIn, following through on her 2025 statement about releasing music exclusively on the professional networking platform. Her profile's sole post promotes her appearance at Nvidia's GPU Technology Conference. Nvidia, currently the world's most valuable company, powers nearly all AI applications. The author of the article released their own Nvidia-inspired film on LinkedIn, criticizing the platform as an "AI slop dystopia" and comparing its appeal to moving in with "boomer grandparents." Grimes, aged 38, is the former partner of Elon Musk. The article frames this move as a form of "artwashing" and a provocative, eccentric artistic statement. LinkedIn is described as social media's least gratifying platform and a rapidly evolving AI-centric space.
