After mounting criticism from LinkedIn's community about the huge influx of machine-written messaging (Originality.ai estimates 81% of the 5,000 posts over 100 words tested this month were likely AI-generated), the platform decided to implement a button that lets users report AI slop. rb.gy/xq2rx6

A new vulnerability has been exposed within Meta's security—offloading work to AI agents. Social media has had a reputation for long response times, so the idea of using AI to automate is tempting. But, the user journey needs to be tested to prevent hackers from accessing high-profile accounts.
