It makes sense that if you can’t be bothered to write it, then I can’t be bothered to read it.
Also, the term “AI slop” puts the blame on a machine instead of the lazy human who doesn’t give a shit and can’t be bothered to so much as proofread a machine’s output based on their half-assed input before subjecting other humans to it and wasting their time.
I never got that impression. Slop is just the default output quality, absent quality control to pick out or refine anything valuable from it. The blame absolutely still lies with the person serving crude and pretending it's gas.
