I'm more sick of hearing "slop slop slop slop slop" than I am of hearing about AI at this point. People sling slop around like it's some sort of brave, heroic, destructive insult, leaving AI users in tears and shambles in its wake. Ironic considering a complaint against AI is that it regurgitates the same characteristic bit of content over and over again mindlessly. But even ChatGPT would have the writing skill to cycle in some other adjectives, my goodness.
I don’t think anyone using the term “slop” thinks it’s brave or leaving anyone else in tears and shambles. I’m fairly certain when folks say they’re tired of AI slop they literally mean they’re tired of AI slop.
Completely agreed. AI haters pride themselves on being creative, but they can't form an original thought on the topic.
