Over one million people have clicked LinkedIn’s AI slop button

超过一百万人点击了 LinkedIn 的“AI 垃圾内容”举报按钮

LinkedIn’s new AI slop button is apparently getting a lot of use. LinkedIn 新推出的“AI 垃圾内容”(AI slop)举报按钮显然得到了广泛使用。

LinkedIn actually announced a “Seems like AI slop” button on July 30th, and the company says that a lot of people have already used it. According to a Thursday post from chief product officer Hari Srinivasan, “over a million people” have clicked on the button, which is accessible from the three dots menu on a post. LinkedIn 实际上是在 7 月 30 日宣布推出“看起来像是 AI 垃圾内容”(Seems like AI slop)按钮的,该公司表示已经有很多人使用了该功能。根据首席产品官 Hari Srinivasan 周四发布的一篇文章,已有“超过一百万人”点击了该按钮,用户可以通过帖子右上角的三个点菜单找到它。

LinkedIn announced the button a few weeks after AI detector Pangram determined that 41 percent of LinkedIn’s longform posts were flagged as fully AI generated, which 404 Media reported on. Alongside the AI slop button, LinkedIn introduced “new and improved” classifiers to identify posts as AI and removed a feature that would “enhance your post” with AI. 在 LinkedIn 宣布推出该按钮的几周前,AI 检测工具 Pangram 曾判定 LinkedIn 上 41% 的长文被标记为完全由 AI 生成,404 Media 对此进行了报道。除了“AI 垃圾内容”按钮外,LinkedIn 还引入了“全新且改进”的分类器来识别 AI 生成的帖子,并删除了一个利用 AI“增强你的帖子”的功能。

“AI slop is a top priority for all of us,” Srinivasan said at the time, and it sounds as if the platform’s changes may be making a difference. In Thursday’s post, Srinivasan said that users are overall “now experiencing 40% less views on what we classify as AI slop from just a few weeks ago.” Srinivasan 当时表示:“AI 垃圾内容是我们所有人的重中之重。”目前看来,该平台的这些举措似乎正在产生影响。在周四的文章中,Srinivasan 表示,与几周前相比,用户现在看到的被归类为“AI 垃圾内容”的帖子浏览量总体下降了 40%。

LinkedIn is also adding a new message that will tell users who make a post if “Some members told us this post seems like AI.” LinkedIn 还增加了一条新提示,会告知发布帖子的用户:“一些成员告诉我们,这篇帖子看起来像是 AI 生成的。”

“We approached this assuming good intent; I know I’m increasingly conscious on how to not sound like AI & the goal is to provide helpful feedback,” Srinivasan said. Srinivasan 表示:“我们采取这一举措是基于善意的初衷;我知道我自己也越来越注意如何避免听起来像 AI,我们的目标是提供有益的反馈。”

Earlier this year, LinkedIn also said it would be cracking down on comments users create at scale “with little or no human involvement.” 今年早些时候,LinkedIn 还表示将打击用户大规模创建的“几乎或完全没有人为参与”的评论。
