might be the case, but as soon as you have read and agree with it, that doesn't make it any kind of "ai slop" :) Is it relevant or helpful? Can I verify it? Are main questions IMO.
- avazhi 29d agoWhether you agree with it or not has no effect on whether it's AI slop or not. Outside of math or coding, domains in which there is objective determinism, any AI outputs are slop to the extent they purport to represent the AI's subjective opinion about something. So, an AI proving that 2+2=4 is not AI slop because it's just a formal proof, whereas an AI writing a missive about how 4 is its favourite number would be slop whether you think it has good points/agree/disagree with it or not. The fact that a site purporting to roast AI slop is itself AI slop is surely somebody taking the piss, and the fact that it has 700 upvotes and is the top story here means that people either simply don't read shit they upvote, or the brainrot is already fully established on HN.
