  • I don’t hate all uses of AI and use it quite a bit (particularly for translation and coding). But I absolutely do hate the low-effort, garbled memes it generates, and the endless sea of garbage websites with inaccurate AI-generated text that make it hard to find real information anymore.

    That’s the slop, and you can easily hate the slop without hating everything about AI.

    Silly in this case, though. That looks like a real cat, and doesn’t have any of the hallmarks of slop.









  • In an AI model collapse, AI systems, which are trained on their own outputs, gradually lose accuracy, diversity, and reliability. This occurs because errors compound across successive model generations, leading to distorted data distributions and “irreversible defects” in performance. The final result? A Nature 2024 paper stated, “The model becomes poisoned with its own projection of reality.”

    A remarkably similar thing happened to my aunt who can’t get off Facebook. We try feeding her accurate data, but she’s become poisoned with her own projection of reality.
