It's obvious LLM tripe when you click into the article and it begins with several worthless paragraphs describing why someone would be interested in the topic and how things can sometimes go wrong...

Yes, I already knew that. That's why I'm here.

It might be an attempt to copy customer service 'empathy' but it has the opposite effect: angering me because my time is wasted with this crap, and I have to scroll several screens to find what I need.

Tangent: your use of the word "tripe" here is spot-on.

The secondary definition (nonsense) works, but I'm talking about the apt metaphor of its primary definition: offal that's technically edible but comes from low-quality parts of the digestive system which are literally filled with feces.

LLM-generated SEO spam should always be called "tripe".

Honestly, a lot of this isn't LLM stuff. It's "people being paid pittance".

Good point; maybe all clickbait and SEO spam, regardless of human provenance, counts as "tripe".
