LinkedIn, the international counterpart to HH, has introduced a new button that lets users flag posts they believe were written by AI. The label is concise yet blunt: “Looks Like AI Junk.”
A recent Pangram study revealed that 41 % of long‑form posts on LinkedIn are entirely generated by neural networks, highlighting just how widespread this type of content has become.
According to LinkedIn’s product lead, combating “AI junk” is now a top priority for the platform. Alongside the new flagging button, the social network is strengthening its automated filters to detect low‑quality or machine‑generated texts and reduce their visibility in users’ feeds.
At the same time, LinkedIn is removing a feature that previously “enhanced” posts using AI. It will be replaced with a more modest tool — one that will only check spelling and grammar, without rewriting or otherwise altering the content.
