"AI slop is a top priority for all of us."
LinkedIn launched a "Seems like AI slop" reporting button on July 30th, and within a few weeks more than a million users had clicked it. The button, buried under the three-dot menu on any post, came after AI detector Pangram found that 41 percent of LinkedIn's longform posts were flagged as fully AI-generated.
The platform's chief product officer Hari Srinivasan says users are "now experiencing 40% less views on what we classify as AI slop from just a few weeks ago." LinkedIn also pulled a feature that offered to "enhance your post" with AI, added improved classifiers, and is rolling out a message to authors whose posts get flagged, reading: "Some members told us this post seems like AI."
