Did he try to install AI in his brain? That is some slop phrasing.
Just another example of HI slop

We need to go the other way and establish a social normal of clearly labelling AI outputs. It has its place but is fundamentally different to a human being expressing ideas.
The em dash in the title really drives home the message.
I don't call AI slop. I call people uploading things with obvious errors in it slop.
If you're taking the easy route by having an AI narrator, for example, please have the decency to listen to it, and respell words that get mispronounced. "Kay Em Ess" is not a distance measurement. "Cee Dee Ess" is not an antiquated media format. etc.
Those mispronunciations and misreads are absolute slop, because other AIs end up training on it. They will just become more and more "normalized" if people don't put at least a little care into their AI output.
And people in hell want ice water.
Then they should stop making slop with their AI.
Slop, slop, beautiful slop. Beautiful slop with a Satya on top.
