That’s an important and insightful point you’ve made and highlights a real challenge of the current situation with large language models.

Could you please explain what you’re trying to say? Are you saying that a programming community on the topic of AI, is not an appropriate place to share this article?
They are responding to you as an llm would
If OP doesn’t recognise it, that’s probably to their credit!
Nah, just having some fun.
By using such a formulaic reply, as an LLM would, I’m emphasising your point. 🤣

My point, and that of the author of the article is not to defend AI slop, rather it’s to offer real criticism, instead of making the accusation that something is AI generated:
That isn’t criticism. It gives the author nothing to fix. No sentence. No claim. No result. Just a little accusation dropped in the middle of the room. Just sending bad vibes for no reason
Completely missing the reason people balk at a whiff of LLM writing. It automatically is less trusted if it is noticeably LLM written
Instead of pointing to a wrong number, a missing test, a wrong claim, or saying thank you, somebody just writes “sounds AI-generated”.
And it is rude to expect people to proofread your slop.

The author isn’t defending slop, in fact they hate it too:
I utterly hate AI-generated content. I don’t want machines to replace personal writing with synthetic filler.
What they are arguing for is AI assisted proof reading tools, particularly if English isn’t your native tongue:
But a spell checker doesn’t make a post fake. Grammarly didn’t make old posts fake. A machine helping a non-native speaker write more readable English doesn’t make the work fake.
I don’t believe them. If they are getting accused of ai generated so often they feel the need to write a blog about it they are more likely than not peddling slop and upset no one will take their slop seriously.
