LinkedIn's AI slop button has been clicked more than a million times

LinkedIn added a "seems like AI slop" option to the report menu on any post on July 30, 2026. Chief Product Officer Hari Srinivasan says members have used it more than a million times since, and that the reports, combined with changes to LinkedIn's detection systems, have cut views of content the platform classifies as AI slop by 40 percent in recent weeks. LinkedIn has not said how its classifiers decide what counts as slop, or whether less AI-generated content is actually being published.
