Both sides are against slop made by AI, not that bit sides can make slop, which is true but irrelevant.

Still so many misconceptions about AI on HN, but I guess it’s just how techies are these days.

Yeah, but to me it's like arguing 'smoking can be more beneficial than harmful to your help, because you take a break and meet new people and loneliness is bad; you should just be disciplined to never smoke more than 2 cigarettes a day and another hard limit is 6 a week'.

Yes, that VERY RARELY would work, but for most (and I mean 98% not 51%) people it doesn't. It's non symmetrical.

Idk, to me avoiding slop seems like the most ethical thing a professional can do these days.
