I appreciate it, but I’m honestly sick of the slop police.
I don’t like the idea of being tricked by AI either, nor the impact AI has on the environment, but I the slop police everywhere, and don’t add much to the conversation. The whole thing is generally tiring.
Pointing out ‘hey bro, this is AI’ and still discussing the post would be a better approach in my book. Not all doctored images are slop either - Photoshop exists and was how shitposts were made for a really long time. We still discussed those posts, and how silly they were.

Then keep slop in pro-GenAI echo chambers.
(Or if it isn’t slop, bring evidence.)
The option to “opt out” of slop has been deliberately denied us by the whole god-damned GenAI grift industry. The only way we have to opt out of slop is to shame those who spread it.
Counterpoint: Not adding much to conversation is the point. Don’t feed the troll. Don’t eat the slop. For real convo use real things not corrupted by slopmachines.
But when an LLM adds more to the conversation than the average poster, you have to start wondering what the fuck we are even doing here.

I’m getting sick of all the AI slop.
Don’t post slop and you won’t have to deal with slop police ;)
Advice: Ignore these folks. Fuck “police” even if they are on the left of the political spectrum.
No, the police are necessary. AI rot causes actual damage to both people and the environment.
Nah, ignore the slop and fuck the slopslingers. I appreciate the slop police because it can be hard to tell sometimes, and being made aware an image is slop can help me get better at identifying it myself in the future. Also people who post slop need to be told that it fucking sucks, because if I wanted to see garbage with no emotion, I’d just watch Fox News, because at least those robots used to have souls
