soulless unreadable AI slop

I can read it but not sure if worth spending energy on it.

It doesn't make sense for the reader to spend more energy than the writer spent on creating it.

PoC||GTFO, if it reproduces, it's valuable

Why is it unreadable? I actually find LLM bug reports/breakdowns to be far more detailed and concise that classical human written ones. If you read the linked repo it clearly goes it depth where the bug was found, how to reproduce it (and in depth). Most disclosures that are human written don't do this at all, they barely even tell you _how_ to reproduce the bug. Just look at the "3.3 The self-store tear", the LLM clearly describes exactly what went wrong, so you can verify it by hand.

Great way to summarize cultural "economics"

Couldn't put the words on this pattern but sometimes all I care about is that someone cared about.
