I have previously blogged about the relatively new trend of AI slop in vulnerability reports submitted to curl and how it hurts and exhausts us. This trend does not seem to slow down. On the contrary, it seems that we have recently not only received more AI slop but also more human slop. The latter … Continue reading Death by a thousand slops →

The curl developers are still drowning in thousands of AI generated vulnerability reports because there is the tiniest chance of a payout.

    This is the shit that happens when you unleash a program that just makes shit up more than 60% of the time. Money men are hailing it as the greatest thing in the world, but from from a social perspective, it is nothing but a disaster. It is designed to replace creative art with automated crap that makes everything we enjoy making or experiencing worse, be it games, music, movies and even software.

      I’ve seen AI generated images used creatively.

      I have yet to see AI replace human creativity.

      Mediums that mostly rely on human expression rely on human expression.

      Mediums that rely on technical expression may take advantage of technical expression.

        I agree that LLMs have some business utility, but they are being marketed as tools that replace humans wholesale, not as tools with limited business utility.

      humans make shit up constantly too, I’d say moreso then ai does. so is far from the greatest thing, has its uses in helping one be extra lazy but yeah…humans make up way more shit on the daily.
