LinkedIn has offered artificial intelligence content tools to its over 1.3 billion members for more than two years. Now it is training a different kind of AI to find and suppress what those tools helped produce.<\/p>\n

Content creation on the platform is up 14% year over year, LinkedIn Vice President and Executive Editor Laura Lorenzetti, per a May 19 Entrepreneur report. Much of it has started to look and sound the same. Feeds that once surfaced human perspective now return something closer to a single synthetic voice. They\u2019re polished, AI-generated posts that sound vaguely inspirational and say nothing.<\/p>\n

LinkedIn is changing its recommendation systems, targeting what it calls \u201cAI slop,\u201d or posts and comments that lack original perspective, the report said. Flagged content won\u2019t be removed but will be suppressed so it doesn\u2019t spread beyond a user\u2019s immediate network. The crackdown extends to comments. Bot-generated and generic AI replies that do little more than summarize the posts they\u2019re responding to are also in scope.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen AI is overused, especially at scale and in an automated way, it dilutes the valuable insights that real human conversations can spark,\u201d Lorenzetti said in a May 20 blog post. \u201cIt\u2019s OK to use AI to help you write, but your posts and comments need to represent your voice and your perspectives. The ultimate value comes from the human behind the tool.\u201d<\/p>\n

The irony is difficult to ignore. LinkedIn\u2019s parent company, Microsoft, has been among the most aggressive promoters of generative AI tools across its product suite. LinkedIn itself offers a prominent \u201crewrite with AI\u201d button in its post composer.<\/p>\n

The company is not trying to penalize users for using AI, only for posting content that lacks original insight, according to the Entrepreneur report.<\/p>\n

The detection system correctly flagged generic AI-generated content 94% of the time in early tests, Lorenzetti said in the blog…<\/p>\n
