LinkedIn Adds Button on Every Post to Report “Seems Like AI Slop,” Which Is Definitely Going to Get a Real Workout
TL;DR
LinkedIn now puts a button on every post that lets users report it as seeming like AI slop. Given the volume of generated content on the platform, the feature is likely to get plenty of use. Futurism notes that a button marking posts as not being AI slop would probably be far more useful.
Nauti's Take
A report button is the first honest admission from a platform that generated posts are clogging the feed, and the opportunity lies in the data, because LinkedIn finally learns what users actually experience as slop. The problem is accuracy, since AI suspicion can hardly be proven and will hit carefully written posts too.
Anyone publishing professionally should lean on concrete examples and numbers rather than polished phrasing.
