That seems like a fair perspective; OP “shit” AI Slop on us so the minimum the project deserves is being shit on for making people look at his unreviewed sloppy project without at least warning about it being unreviewed.

Just consider what a bigger AI shit show vortex we are looking at, where this project only exists because of other ill considered AI slop projects. But at the same time, AI is not going anywhere and it does have the potential to massively “improve” things.

I believe it’s really just that we are going through adaptation pains, with everyone really just being sloppy for all the same kinds of reasons that people were sloppy before AI. It’s not like even the biggest corporations didn’t create sloppy messes before AI. Microsoft is a canonical example of this whole notion for basically its whole existence; poorly conceived, sloppily executed, even its core product line being so inherently insecure that it has not just spun up its own separate sectors of industries, but multiple sectors of industries around patching the security sieve called Microsoft, something akin to a monopoly on plumbing created from wire mesh.

It is making me think of how to increase the quality of my QA and final review process though. But frankly, I think we will soon fondly reminisce about a time when AI still produced slop and a human was actually useful and even needed to do QA and final review; as bleak as that sounds. I don’t see how that will not be the case within two years from now, and that’s probably being generous, as fast as things have been developing.
