For me it's saying, "we can't joke about anything anymore". Sirens go off immediately 🚨

Controversial maybe, but I think you missed "slop" in regular conversation, specifically hybrid words (see microslop). It's one thing to write about it in an AI thread, but douchey to me if you bend a conversation to it then say it out loud.

    Giving you an upvote because I think this is a legitimate position, but I strongly disagree. AI has become so pervasive in our lives that it's extremely difficult to avoid even offline, so I see no problem with someone saying in an irl conversation, "I wish my mom would stop sending me AI slop videos" or "I can't help but feel paranoid I'm going to wake up one morning and find out I've lost my thesis work to the latest microslop update" or "I've started dreading work ever since they hired 'workslop Bill'"

    No. If you're pro-AI you're a chud.

    There's a little space between being pro-AI and refraining from shoe-horning really clever burn words like "slop", "clown", and "dumb" into the names of things. It shows the same mastery of derision and humor as playground fart jokes. Chuds trot those out, and it's a huge eyeroll; we can do better.
