LinkedIn actually announced a “Seems like AI slop” button on July 30th, and the company says that a lot of people have already used it. According to a Thursday post from chief product officer Hari Srinivasan, “over a million people” have clicked on the button, which is accessible from the three dots menu on a post.
LinkedIn announced the button a few weeks after AI detector Pangram determined that 41 percent of LinkedIn’s longform posts were flagged as fully AI generated, which 404 Media reported on. Alongside the AI slop button, LinkedIn introduced “new and improved” classifiers to identify posts as AI and removed a feature that would “enhance your post” with AI.
“AI slop is a top priority for all of us,” Srinivasan said at the time, and it sounds as if the platform’s changes may be making a difference. In Thursday’s post, Srinivasan said that users are overall “now experiencing 40% less views on what we classify as AI slop from just a few weeks ago.”
