A few weeks ago, LinkedIn introduced a "This looks like AI slop" button and to linkedIn's credit, my feed has been a lot better since that happened.

There's still some going around of course, but it's far less than the endless stereotypical linkedIn chum in the feed that there was.

I don't know if engaging with that button means I'm less likely to be served such content, or whether it's cleaning up everyone's feeds.

The worst were the ones starting, "I had a client phone me up", and when you'd look at the profile they wouldn't even obviously have such clients, and certainly wouldn't be the obvious person to call in that scenario.

I can't imagine being that shameless, and just to boost an artificial reach.

I like my LinkedIn cringe hand written, thank you very much.

I'm the proud author of Two such stories, if it pleases you:

* The One Shoe CEO

* Advice from a millionaire (true story)

You'll just have to find them.

I only want linkedin cringe if it's of the artisanal, hand crafted, organic, free range, GMO free, fair trade, heirloom variety.

Wow, I didn't notice that, thanks for pointing it out.
