I'm so tired of seeing the word "slop" used for everything AI. It's fucking annoying and as tiring as an American right-winger calling everything libtard.
Open a thesaurus. You can say "trash", "shit", "garbage", "waste", "viral fecundity", "sludge", "goop", or "muck" for example. Keep it new instead of just parroting the same old tired phrase.
It's like complaining that people always use the word "address" to describe IP endpoints. THAT'S THE WORD FOR IT. When you say "slop" people know you mean AI generated content; when you say "garbage", they don't.
People always precede "slop" with "AI", even in the comment I responded to.
And the reason I got annoyed is because they used it for an algorithm rather than AI as well.
The general public found a well-fitting word that they're now using for it.
I do forget the general American public has the reading skills of a middle schooler. Touché.
All of that is far, far more work than AI deserves. Slop is about the most appropriate word for it and personally I'm putting zero effort beyond that into describing AI and AI-related topics
you mean goop? lol
none of those words carry the implication of slop being what pigs eat
Whoops fixed.
And I think goop fits too.
He probably meant the word that rhymes with "buck" or "look" and not the racial slur that rhymes with "toque".
