LinkedIn’s newly introduced reaction button, “seems like AI slop,” has been clicked by more than one million people within a few weeks, according to reporting from multiple outlets. The button is intended to let users flag posts that appear to be low-quality or AI-generated content.
Business Insider reports that LinkedIn is starting to share feedback more broadly to posts that are widely suspected to be AI, suggesting the platform is using users’ reactions to inform how such content is handled. TechRadar similarly notes the scale of adoption, while questioning why users may still see such posts frequently in their feeds despite the high number of button clicks.
Taken together, the coverage focuses on two related points: rapid user participation in the new feedback mechanism, and ongoing debate among users about whether it is translating into noticeable feed changes. The outlets largely agree on the button’s popularity and LinkedIn’s evolving response, while differing in emphasis on how effective users perceive it to be in reducing AI-suspected posts.
