Wikipedia has a new page on how to spot AI slop and give it the Ellen Ripley treatment. Inter alia "the LLM tends to omit specific, unusual, nuanced facts (which are statistically rare) and replace them with more generic, positive descriptions (which are statistically common). Thus the highly specific 'inventor of the first train-coupling device” might become “a revolutionary titan of industry.'" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing
