“Who created this AI slop?”

Ah, yes, clearly AI handwriting

They constantly repeat shit without really understanding it, a lot like parrots. They obviously don't know how to actually identify AI slop.

Correct, but we are seeing that they will use it as a convenient go-to excuse for EVERYTHING.

It also means that since they are so sure that Libz are producing AI slop to tar & feather them, they'll rationalize that they have the right to use it in return, except their AI really will be slop, because they're collectively too virtuosically stupid and incompetent to do anything correctly.

Remember the kids doing non-technical degrees at college? Some of them are now journalists.

None of us will know the difference between "AI Slop" and the truth within a year.

I heard this more than a few times over a year ago. Sure, it's getting better, but there will always be limitations and weak points, even if they require more effort to detect.

Good Critical Thinking Skills will expose most of it right out of the gate.
