❗️LinkedIn is going to tell people that others see their posts as AI slop. The message lands in Post Analytics, softened to "seems like AI."

This from the platform that built the "enhance with AI" button into its own composer and whose owner, Microsoft, has spent years wedging Copilot into Word, Outlook, Teams and Windows. The button is now being retired.

Over a million members have clicked the LinkedIn-slop-button since 30 July, says CPO Hari Srinivasan, who reports views of content LinkedIn classifies as slop are down 40%.

❗️Microsoft just released an official app that turns your default browser search settings to Bing, by installing an extension in Chrome, Firefox, Brave and Edge.
