"continvoucly morged" is such a perfect phrase to describe what happened, it's poetic
Was reading the word morged thinking it was some new slang I hadn't heard of. Incredible.

#22From TFA: > the diagram was both well-known enough and obviously AI-slop-y enough that it was easy to spot as plagiarism. But we all know there will just be more and more content like this that isn't so well-known or soon will get mutated or disguised in more advanced ways that this plagiarism no longer will be recognizable as such. Most content will be less known and the ensloppified version more obfuscated... the a…

Please everyone: spell 'enslopified', with two 'p's - ensloppiified.

#25The new Head of Quality in Microsoft has not started working there yet, so it's business as usual at MS... And now with AI slop on top

"Babe, wake up. New verb for slop just dropped."
It's a perfectly cromulent word.

#27Please let morged become a thing.
Satya yelled "it's morgin' time" and then morged all over the place.

#28Similar story. I'm American but work and live outside the US, so I don't know how likely this would be if I had ordered from Amazon. But I ordered a rug for my sons' room from this country's equivalent to Amazon (that is, the most popular order-online-and-we-ship-to-you storefront in this country), and instead of what I ordered (a rug with an image showing the planets, with labels in English) I got an obviously AI-generated copy of the image, whose letters were often mangled (MARS looked like MɅPS, for example). Thankfully the storefront allowed me to return it for a refund, I ordered from a different seller on the second try, and this time I received a rug that precisely matched the image on the storefront. But yes, there are unscrupulous merchants who are using AI to sloppily copy other people's work.

One step closer to the Redditification of HN. And it is entirely because the content out there nowadays.

#30On the one hand, I feel for people who have their creations ripped off.
On the other hand, it makes sense for Microsoft to rip this off, as part of the continuing enshittification of, well, everything.
Having been subjected to GitFlow at a previous employer, after having already done git for years and version control for decades, I can say that GitFlow is... not good.
And, I'm not the only one who feels this way.
