The following should not be considered "AI slop":
* Text that was rough drafted by a human but was re-paraphrased by AI to sound better
* Otherwise human created images processed through AI filters (removing JPEG artifacts, noise reduction, enhanced lighting, colorization, etc)
* Basically all image to image generation if the input image was 100% human created
* Music played with one instrument (or group of instruments) then processed through a program like NeuralNote to create a MIDI file and have it played in a different instrument
* Any attempt to restore a vector image if only the rasterization is available
* Any attempt to recreate a 3D model that only has 2D images of it available
* Any attempt to restore original music whose only archive has other noises being played over it (e.g a song whose only existing presence is in a TV show but you want the original song without any of the other sounds playing over it)
* Websites and webpages that only used AI to generate HTML/CSS templates, but have everything else be human generated
* Scripts and configuration files that are not the core part of a program
* Source code that was 100% human created, but then sent through an LLM to clean up and refactor
* Source code that was 100% human created, but then sent through an LLM to be rewritten in a different language, use a different API/library/framework, or be ported to a different platform
* Programs that were 100% human written, but compiled through a vibe-coded compiler
* Images, sounds, videos, etc that were 100% human generated, but were done so using a vibe-coded program
* Video games, movies, TV shows, etc that only have a minuscule amount of AI generated assets (e.g the author had to find a certain sound effect but couldn't and doesn't have the means to generate it traditionally, so he had to use AI to make one)
* Any work whose only AI generated thing is the character/location names
* Any story whose setting was AI generated but the plot is human created
* Any story that used AI to help the author find inspiration when he/she had writer's block
* Any game whose mechanics were (partially) came up with by AI when the developers were suffering from writer's block
* Any work whose only AI generated asset is the fucking logo
* Any company, organization, etc that uses an AI generated logo and nothing more
@icedquinn And yet, some people still have knee-jerk reactions to it.
it really did start in the early days as "i hate AI tech support" and a lot of the current discourse kind of tracks a blind rage narrative more than reason.
meanwhile you show an accurate green screen filter to filmmakers or a successful cancer screening diffuser and people stop for a second and go
@xianc78 imo, AI slop is just the same thing as human slop but with some element of AI causing it to be slop
ok, it's not "AI slop", it's "AI cancer"
