There was this audio book thing we used to have when I was in kindergarten. It was about farm animals, and each animal had its own sound effects. Pigs had the sound effect of a man saying the phrase "sloppity sloppity sloppity slop, sloppity sloppity sloppity slop".

This is now my mantra whenever I see AI slop.

Maybe we should start chanting it en masse at these tech conventions any time AI is being discussed as anything more than a massive waste of resources.
