Is it just me, or has the "AI SLOP" phrase on reddit site gotten completely out of hand?
I recently spent hours writing a deep dive on a topic I’m interested in. I did the research, structured the data, and tried to make it a clean, professional article. The reward? My post got deleted and the comments were just people screaming "AI SLOP" and "ChatGPT bot."
Since when did having good grammar and a professional structure become a crime?
The irony is that even if you copy-paste a literal Wikipedia article into an AI Detector, it flags it as AI Written. Nowadays it is like if a post isn't a messy, low-effort wall of text with typos, it must be a bot.
It’s creating this habit where creators have to intentionally write worse just to prove their content is original. In an era where everyone uses tools to help organize their thoughts, why are we punishing people for actually putting effort into the final presentation?
I’d honestly rather read a well-structured "bot-sounding" post that teaches me something than another low-effort "human" rant, but maybe that’s just me.
And I don't know what is up with these AI detectors - they even flag human written content as AI!
Do let me know what are your thoughts about this topic and let's make this post reach to everyone out there facing this issue!
Signing off,
