        Yeah I’m starting to see this in every meme post. There’s always someone commenting “ai slop” or whatever.

        It’s a meme. We know. AI was used as a tool to convey a 2 second joke. Not sure why they’re getting so worked up.

        It’s like calling a photo “camera slop” because it wasn’t painted. Or an email “internet garbage” because you didn’t mail a paper letter.

        Sorry I know I’m preaching to the choir here but their comments are more annoying than what they’re complaining about and I just needed to vent a bit.

          there are 2 problems with AI shitposts: inherently using stolen labour (for training the models) and energy usage

          is it worth being annoyed about? yeah sure
          is it worth hardline dismissing every shitpost with some AI in it entirely? i mean it’s a shitpost in the end so who cares, but maybe put that effort into harassing companies that replace actual employees with AI…

          No you don’t get it. The AI is taking hard working shitposter’s jobs! This is an atrocity!

        I have a heavily congestion-based cold going on right now. There is a lot of mucus in play, especially in my throat.

        I read this post and, eventually, this comment. I thought them funny.

        I then narrated all of the above to my wife, started to laugh halfway through, and nearly choked to death.

        It seemed likely you would want to know your assassination attempt was unsuccessful, but a solid try.
