LINKEDIN IS CRACKING DOWN ON AI SLOP. HERE'S WHAT THAT MEANS FOR YOUR STRATEGY
Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter
The AI writing tools LinkedIn embedded in its own product helped produce the flood of generic content the platform is now suppressing. Posts flagged as AI slop keep their visibility to direct connections but lose recommendation-engine distribution, so higher posting frequency now consumes slots without delivering reach. The line is whether a post contains something only its author or their organization could provide, a client outcome, a first-party data point, or a specific internal observation. AI used for research and drafting is fine. AI used for the thinking is what gets caught.
