LinkedIn adds a button to report AI-generated ‘slop’
LinkedIn is adding a reporting option for low-quality AI-generated posts and replacing its AI writing assistant with a proofreading tool to combat content spam.
LinkedIn is implementing new measures to address the proliferation of automated content on its platform. Users will soon have the ability to flag posts that appear to be low-quality AI output, labeled as "slop".
Concurrently, the professional network is adjusting its own generative AI offerings. The existing AI writing feature is being swapped out for a proofreading utility, signaling a shift in how the company integrates generative models into user workflows.
These changes reflect growing industry concerns regarding content authenticity and user experience degradation caused by unchecked generative AI. By providing reporting mechanisms and refining internal tools, LinkedIn aims to maintain platform quality amidst the surge in AI-assisted posting.
