You’re defending slop, reacting like the slime in Ghostbusters.

I’d usually call you a slopvangelical LLM thumper, but I’m trying to branch out.

No, I'm defending a useful tool. I don't use it to make "slop", I use it to help improve aspects of my life. Fuck me, right? How fucking dare I do that UNLESS it's by a method you approve?

You're the ignorant one that thinks the only use is to make AI art or whatever.

Dig up, mate.

None of this AI grift is meant to be treated as serious.

The very foundation it’s built upon is energised sand performing explicitly and purposefully inaccurate and imprecise calculations in an explosively cascading sequence.

How better to describe the result of this than as slop?

Much like any other religious adherence, I don’t care what you believe and subject yourself to personally, but my threshold for calling out and ridiculing is the same. When those beliefs and impositions are forced on non-believers without consent, which is what’s happening from this hype cycle.

If you think it's only ability is "making slop", that means you're ignorant and proud of it

It's also really good at making humans dumb. Can you tell us more about that aspect?
