what i find pretty amusing - when people identified something as ai slop, the distinctive feature was that the writing was good. too good. and then the people who were writing well were "outed" as ais, even though they were not. it was more about form, but the interesting thing is that the content that ai generates is usually much better than what we humans produce. doesn't make it less annoying, something that used to be rare is now obviously generated. feels like there was no human time invested in writing it. no attention, just cheap tokens. we want the human slop. feels authentic. strange, ain't it?
