LinkedIn Tests "Seems Like AI Slop" Reporting Button With Algorithmic Reach Penalty

LinkedIn is testing a "seems like AI slop" reporting button, announced by Chief Product Officer Hari Srinivasan. Flagged posts receive reduced algorithmic reach and posters get a private notification via their analytics dashboard. User flags will also train LinkedIn's AI-detection systems. Over 40% of longform LinkedIn posts are fully AI-generated, per detection firm Pangram — the highest rate among social platforms measured.
