LinkedIn is rolling out new controls aimed at reducing low-quality, AI-generated posts on its platform. Multiple outlets report that LinkedIn has added a “Seems like AI slop” option to the post menu, allowing users to flag content they believe was written by AI and may be generic or unhelpful. The option appears under the post’s three-dot actions and is presented as a way for users to identify and report posts that “seem like AI slop.”
The updates are part of broader efforts to address concerns about what some users describe as filler-like or vague AI content flooding feeds. TechCrunch also reports that LinkedIn is changing its own AI writing offering by replacing an AI writing feature with a proofreading tool, which would focus more on editing rather than generating new text.
Overall, the changes expand user reporting and adjust LinkedIn’s AI-related functionality, reflecting a shift toward mitigation measures for perceived AI-written content quality issues.
