LinkedIn lets users flag posts that seem AI-generated
The Microsoft-owned professional network said user feedback will help train its classifiers to better detect AI-generated or low-quality posts.
LinkedIn has announced a series of measures to reduce AI-generated “slop” on its platform, introducing a feature that lets users report posts that appear to have been written mainly by artificial intelligence.
The company said reports submitted through the new “Seems like AI slop” button will improve machine-learning systems that identify low-quality AI content, allowing LinkedIn to reduce the distribution of such posts in content recommendations.
The platform is also strengthening automated spam defenses, saying it now blocks hundreds of thousands of bot-generated comments daily alongside millions of other automated attempts.
As part of the overhaul, LinkedIn is retiring its AI-assisted “Enhance your post” feature and replacing it with a proofreading tool designed to improve grammar without rewriting users’ content.
