LinkedIn adds 'AI slop' button to combat generated content · 10 sources tracked

LinkedIn has introduced a new feature allowing users to flag posts as "AI slop," addressing concerns about the prevalence of AI-generated content on the platform. This button, accessible via a three-dot menu on posts, helps users report content they deem inauthentic or heavily AI-influenced. The feedback gathered will be used to tune LinkedIn's internal models for identifying and reducing low-quality AI content in user feeds. In conjunction with this reporting tool, LinkedIn is also phasing out some of its AI writing assistance features, replacing them with a simpler proofreading tool that preserves the user's original voice. AI

IMPACT This feature aims to improve content quality on LinkedIn, potentially impacting how AI-generated content is perceived and distributed on professional networks.
