Slop slop is text that repetitively calls things slop. Because of the popularity of the word slop[1] to refer to AI generated text, it is now used to derisively refer to text online that one dislikes. Because human tastes differ greatly, almost every piece of work is likely to be declared 'slop' by someone at some point of time.
The repetitive use of the word 'slop' to describe a text negatively rather than to use descriptive verbiage that clarifies why a text is rubbish is in itself a form of slop. Hence, such criticism is slop slop.
Example[edit]
A typical example of the confusion a normal human experiences when faced with an example of slop slop.
If this is not AI slop then I feel sorry for the author.
I don't understand this comment at all - it's very obviously written about personal experience with development, doesn't read like it was written with AI, and the sentiment is nice.
Sure, the projects mentioned aren't the most impressive pieces of software ever written, but isn't that kind of the point of the article?
