well, it also made by the same guy behind the boring go book which probably means that boring go is also most likely AI generated

nowadays before reading or buying any book, we need to extensively investigate the author, the author name is now more important than ever, i think whenever a book is shared, the author need to me highlighted

That guy’s entire post and submission history appears to be listicles and slop.

I mean not really. You read a paragraph or two and notice the quality of the text, start getting suspicious and continue two or three paragraphs more, notice some very basic inconsistencies/incoherence, realize it's AI-written and ctrl+w the tab (or put back the book in the shelf) and move on with your life.

If there is no samples of the book, I'd hesitate to even consider buying it, just so you can actually sample the text. Very easy in bookstores luckily, so not a huge problem in the end.

You can just read a paragraph or two of each email, and then decide whether or not to delete them. We don't additional tools to combat spam.

Kind of feels like a slightly different thing, I don't spend days/weeks reading through one email.

If someone wanted an AI generated Zig tutorial, why wouldn't they go to their favorite LLM supplier and simply prompt the AI for one? Why do we need someone to create this spam ahead of time? LLMs are improving all the time and Zig is a moving target. Seems like a win-win-win. The end-user gets a better (and potentially customized) tutorial for the latest Zig, and there is less overall spam pollution.

I don't have the answers to those questions, and I don't know why I'm being asked those either. I don't like AI-slop either, I don't think anyone except the ones who produce it themselves like it.

But ultimately it's a fools errand trying to stop/get people to do something, best you can do is adjust your own approach.

we don't pay for emails either

i think for consumer protection, AI products need to be flagged as AI products, clearly labelled as AI produced or assisted , of course for free goods the burden is on us, but for anything we pay for, I hope we get this protection
