The official Introduction to Github page included an AI-generated graphic with the phrase "continvoucly morged" on it, among other mistakes.

Bruh morged it all to fuck.,

Continvoucly.

I mean what’s the point of morging if you’re gonna do it intermittoucly?

Morge (v): To add AI-generated slop to a previously unsoiled codebase.
Show threadluciferofastoraFeb 24
Morge continvoucly is to set up automatic slop generation tooling or to flood a codebase with slop PRs
Show threaddegenFeb 24
I like to think of if it as “mogging” the codebase with the sigma branch
Show threadAlcoholicornFeb 24
Why did this happen? Like in what circumstance does it make sense to delete tge originals and replace them with slop?

git blame

Im guessing they wanted to make the screenshot a little more modern with solid colors, solid arrows and plain white backgrounds.

And then made no effort to proofread it

My favorite part of Morbius was when he said “I am Morbius” and then morgbed all over everyone!

Show threadborthFeb 24
It’s the exact same image that was sloppified, so why did they even generate one to begin with?
Show threaddbx12Feb 24
So they don’t have to credit and claim it’s “own work”
Show threadSpicyLizardsFeb 24
Microslop doing the thing they do?

Commentary from the author of the original git flow image that was morged over Tim here: nvie.com/posts/15-years-later/
15+ years later, Microsoft morged my diagram

Thanks for the link. It annoys me that even “good” journalism (PC Gamer) didn’t quote him correctly; stripping the <em> tags obfuscated the original tone.

It’s morging time
Show threadBombasticFeb 24
I morged about a morgillion times already

I absolutely love the fact that we’ll most likely never get rid of stuff like that in AI generated content. There will always be things that are wrong/wonky with it.

The problem is when they start making it acceptable to the masses

excuse me my mom’s name is also morge

My mistake! There is always a morgin of error with this stuff.

Microslop at it again
Show threadHadriscusFeb 24
What is it with people delegating the simplest things to AI ? it’s a graphic with dots and lines and a little bit of text ffs, just do it yourself like a big boy
Show threadpulseyFeb 24
even worse: the original could’ve just been used with appropriate attribution. It’s even easier than generating an image.
Show threadBenaaasaaasFeb 24
But you see it’s more difficult than just saying “generate me github flow readme”
Show threadChaoticNeutralCzechFeb 24

among other mistakes

It’s nothing but mistakes

Show threaddefinitemaybeFeb 24
Going backwards in Tim makes complete sense. You just don’t morge enough to understand.
Show threaddangercakeFeb 24
Fine but has anyone asked Tim how they felt about it
Show threadTaleyaFeb 25
It’s morgein’ time
Show threadkaty ✨Feb 24
i dont even get why they needed to make an ai copy if they were gonna steal at least just right click copy the image.

There you go, kids! Behold, The Future™!

Having RAM prices skyrocket 9000% and all the ecological destruction was totally worth it for a future that’s continvoucly morged!

Show threadzerofkFeb 27
Wait, I saw that image without context. You’re telling me it wasn’t satire?
