AI slop

Lmao oops, looks like I hit a sore spot for an AI bro. Your seething response just further confirms the message of my post. I accept the “times” and that generative AI slop is here forever now. You should get with the times and accept that 99.9% of people in the world are going to literally be physically repulsed by you when you try to call your AI slop “art”.

ai slop is flooding everything, jeets are making seo-optimized websites half-made by an llm, filled with llm slop. ai-generated youtube channels, literal internet bots, etc. this shit is so annoying, image space is the least affected because you can thankfully filter the most of this shit.

And he's right. Hundreds get released a day. Only 1% get any sales enough to support themselves. And only like 0.1% of them got a runaway success like Balatro. Also because the 99% that got released are either garbage, asset flips, AI slop or terrible but well-intentioned by inexperienced devs.

Now she’s been spending her days hanging out at KMUN, learning about the seemingly outmoded technology of terrestrial radio, which she thinks will gain a kind of “postapocalyptic” usefulness to humanity as the internet is overrun with AI slop.
