LinkedIn adds a button to report AI-generated ‘slop’
TechCrunch AI Sarah Perez ● Covered by 3 sources
LinkedIn launched a "seems like AI slop" reporting button to help users flag low-quality AI-generated posts, joining other platforms like Substack in combating artificial content. The company blocks hundreds of thousands of automated comment attempts daily and is introducing classifiers to identify AI-generated content in recommendations. LinkedIn also disabled its AI post enhancement feature and will privately flag inauthentic content to users, shifting its approach toward human-written authenticity.
Why it matters
LinkedIn is introducing new ways to reduce low-quality AI-generated posts, including a “seems like AI slop” reporting option. It's also replacing its own AI writing feature with a proofreading tool.
