Nothing wrong with that, as long as you go into it fully aware that someone is going to profit off what you provide for free (and in this particular case, that they're trying to use you as a free replacement for paid personnel who they just terminated).

I think that providing content for free is not necessarily a bad thing. The internet and many many fora and chat groups from the still working IRC even, helped me a lot in learning new techniques and mastering them. I like to give back what I received, in a way. I also think it depends on the organization or company.
For me, LinkedIn is a place that has lots of people and companies around I find interesting to connect with. I use it too, to show my expertise in our field of work, technical communication, technical documentation.
I also think that each person should decide for themselves what they are ready to do - would like to avoid.
Apart from downright illegal actions! A no go.
That's why I appreciate the information on the layoff of so many people. I also think, remembering history, the pattern is familiar - for example the time when cars became part of human life, a lot of professions related to horse keeping and carriage driving became extinct.
I think we need to face AI and its implications, stop illegal and unethical uses - and get training to be prepared.
