Hmm, writing a thing and, without thinking about it, used the verb “enslopify”. I can’t be the first. I think it’ll catch on.

@timbray Question from non-native english speaker 🙋‍♂️: Why with both "en-" and "-fy"? Wouldn't "slopify" or "enslop" describe the process of diluting content with AI BS enough? Does it add hidden meaning?

@reep Haha you might be right. Maybe it's too late? Maybe I should run a poll?

(Obviously I'm influenced by Cory Doctorow's “enshittification”)

@timbray Only if clarification were important to you. I just stumbled upon it. If it feels right for your intended meaning, stay with it...
