I noticed almost everybody here agrees that all AI is bad, and anything produced by AI is slop. and refuse to use any software made in part or in whole with AI or help of AI? Please mention your background and usage of AI with your answer.

As I understand people in design see the worst part. I think that is because design has a huge artistic part. But when other people do it, they do not care about art, they just want to to pass some information even if it makes my eyes bleed and make my cognitive load spike thru the roof (I would be exhausted by the end of the day looking at all the slop). But truth is, those kind of people you mention wanted this situation even before AI and GenAI was a thing, they just did not have a way to do it. Now they have it. Most Big companies do not reason in the way we real humans do. They want to make money, so they build a system that makes them money, then they keep tweaking it to make even more money. They don’t care about the actual product or how it is made. They care about making money.
That is why we have the situation you describe.
Honestly, the only parts I’ve felt as if AI has impacted me is in hiring. Designers tend to sell themselves based on their portfolios, and most of the decently-paying companies seem to now be using AI to sort through résumés, so regardless of how good your work is, you need to use arbitrarily-selected keywords or you won’t even get an interview. The other way is that HR departments list being “proficient with leading AI platforms” with no idea how that might be important to the job, and from what I can tell, resistance to that is a red flag.
