Probably one of the most reused and generic patterns in logos, you can find countless sites and businesses with something like that.

Yeah of course not. When nobody notices, then there is nothing to discuss. Otherwise it would just be conjecuture. And by that logic anything where AI is noticable would be categorizable as AI slop. Which is exactly what I'm criticizing
don't post slop then. If AI is noticeable, it is AI slop.

#14Writing about the operating cost of AI tools while the whole article is a complete AI slop. :)
Whether written with AI or not, I don't necessarily agree with the sentiment that it's AI slop . We too often only categorize between no AI used and AI slop. Does them using AI to write the article invalidate the points stated in any way? I personally don't think so. I too am weary of constant bombardment with AI but at the same time being against something just because AI was in the loop isn't much better, if at all…
If it wasn't worth writing for the author, it won't be worth reading for you and I. If you have a point to make, putting it into words is part of how you structure and understand it yourself. I would much rather read a point imperfectly made by a person, than a bunch of algo-noise around the fuzzy outline of a point that nobody has thought through.
If you value your finite human time and attention you have to somehow sift through the deluge of slop and the simplest, most effective filter is to immediately ditch anything that fails the slop sniff test. You are not owed readers.

I think there's a difference. Sometimes you'll see some random LLM tells like load-bearing if looking, but you don't notice on a first pass. Those are fine. Slop is slop

#18Well put, and I think the problem extends beyond agentic systems to regular software. Someone in an organisation whips up a useful product, publishes it and is now on the hook for bug fixes, feature requests and operations. The maintenance cost is often much larger than the cost of building it now that producing an MVP is so easy.

It actually extends to all automation, even before computers. Replacing oxen with tractors? Now you have to keep the tractors running.

#20More AI written slop...
Just skip it.
Not worth reading.
