What "slop" means to me.

A friend of mine shared something personal online. I won't use their name until I get their permission.

They have a family member going through a mental health crisis. This crisis has been made much worse by AI. AI validates people's delusions and makes it harder to get help.

When I think of "slop", it's not a mere annoyance. "Slop" is something that has caused a tangible harm in the life of someone I care about. My opinion of AI folly couldn't be any lower.

Ukraine now has not a single power plant that was not hit by missiles, most of them not operational right now. Kiev currently is -13 °C. People are freezing for days, pipes are bursting. And we got so used to the news of the war, that it's not even a front page story any more.
