LinkedIn adds a button to report AI-generated 'slop'

LinkedIn announced a new feature allowing users to click a "seems like AI slop" button to flag posts that appear to be low-quality and AI-generated.
This move reflects a broader shift across online platforms to crack down on AI content. Substack recently partnered with Pangram to identify AI-written content, while Cloudflare warns that bot traffic has now surpassed human requests on the web.
