> I understand the issue with AI gen slop, but slop content has been around since before AI - it's the incentives that are rotten. Everyone says this, and it feels like a wholly unserious way to terminate the thinking and end the conversation. Is the slop problem meaningfully worse now that we have AI? Yes: I’m coming across much more deceptively framed or fluffed up content than I used to. Is anyone proposing any (actually credible, not hand wavy microtransaction schemes) method of fixing the incentives? No. So should we do some sort of First Amendment-violating ultramessy AI ban? I don’t want that to happen, but people are mad, and if we don’t come up with a serious and credible way to fix this, then people who care less than us will take it upon themselves to solve it, and the “First Amendment-violating ultramessy AI ban” is what we’re gonna get. |

That's actually a good thing.
Slop has been out there and getting worse for the last decade but it's been at an, unfortunately, acceptable level for most of society.
Gen AI shouts that the emperor has no clothes.
The bullshit busywork can be generated. It's worthless. Finally.
No more long winded grant proposals. Or filler emails. Or Filler presentations. Or filler videos. or perfectly samey selfies.
Now it's worthless. Now we can move on.
