LinkedIn Reduces AI Slop Views by 40 Percent

LinkedIn has implemented a series of measures to combat the proliferation of low-quality, artificially generated content on its professional network. The company introduced a reporting button labeled seems like AI slop, which Hari Srinivasan, the Chief Product Officer, announced has been used by over one million people in the two weeks since its launch.

This community feedback, integrated with updated detection systems, has led to a 40 percent reduction in views for content classified as AI slop. To discourage creators from posting low-quality material, LinkedIn is adding a feature to Post Analytics that notifies users when their content receives significant community reports.

Beyond reporting tools, the platform has replaced its enhance with AI rewrite tool with a more limited proofreading option. LinkedIn also reported blocking billions of automation attempts in recent months to prioritize real human perspectives over synthetic content.
