Not gonna lie, I used slop early on when it was available, as well as when I was starting to get my footing with PowerShell, working on the CopyCompare script.

I quit using it fairly early on after hearing more and more about how awful it is for the environment, and how companies would shoehorn it into everything unnecessarily just to make a quick buck off the boom. Not to mention my own experience having to troubleshoot and re-do bad code that it would spit out.

I haven't used it since, but I would be lying if I said I've never used it.

@maddy ive never intentionally used an LLM (aside from what google shoves at me in search results) but i used to use the image generators circa 2022 quite a lot. i liked the kind of uncanny valley effect they had at the time, terrible at doing anything “realistic” but oddly good at creating abstract nothingness in a familiar style.

even defended AI for a time! i could see true artistic applications nobody else was bothering with. (1/2)

i stopped as it became clear the architects of AI had no interest in actual artistic or novel applications or any kind of ethics, only churning out slop and fucking over labor. (2/2)
