LinkedIn宣布推出"Seems like AI slop"举报按钮，允许用户标记和举报疑似AI生成的低质量内容[1][2]。该平台首席产品官Hari Srinivasan表示："AI slop is a top priority for all of us"[1]。根据AI检测工具Pangram的数据，LinkedIn上41%的长文内容被检测为完全由AI生成[2]。
这一举报功能是LinkedIn应对平台AI垃圾内容的多管齐下措施之一[1]。除了用户举报机制外，LinkedIn还加强了自动化防御，每天阻止"数十万"个自动评论尝试[1]，并引入新的分类器来识别低质量内容[1]。同时，该平台下线了"enhance your post" AI写作功能，改为语法校对功能[1]。
LinkedIn has introduced a reporting feature that enables users to flag content suspected of being artificially generated, as the platform intensifies its efforts to combat low-quality AI material.[1][2] The new "Seems like AI slop" button allows members to report posts they believe are AI-generated, marking a significant step in the professional network's content moderation strategy.[1][2]
According to LinkedIn's Chief Product Officer Hari Srinivasan, "AI slop is a top priority for all of us."[1][2] The company is implementing multiple complementary measures to address the problem, including strengthened automated defenses, new classifiers designed to identify low-quality content, and revisions to its writing assistance features.[1] Specifically, LinkedIn has discontinued its "enhance your post" AI writing tool in favor of a grammar correction feature.[1] The platform reports blocking "hundreds of thousands" of automated commenting attempts daily.[1]
The prevalence of AI-generated content on LinkedIn has become increasingly apparent.[2] Research by AI detection tool Pangram found that 41 percent of long-form posts on the platform were flagged as entirely AI-generated.[2] The broader challenge extends beyond LinkedIn: Cloudflare has reported that bot traffic across the internet now exceeds requests generated by humans.[1] This trend reflects growing industry concern, with startup Pangram recently securing $9 million in new funding to address the proliferation of AI content, and news aggregator Digg shuttering its Reddit competitor in March due to an inability to control bot flooding.[1]
