The legal system has a word to describe AI "slop" --- it is called "negligence".

And as the remedy starts being applied (aka "liability"), the enthusiasm for AI will start to wane.

I wouldn't be surprised if some businesses ban the use of AI --- starting with law firms.

I applaud your use of triple dashes to avoid automatic conversion to em dashes and being labeled an AI. Kudos!

The legal system has a word to describe software bugs --- it is called "negligence".

And as the remedy starts being applied (aka "liability"), the enthusiasm for software will start to wane.

What if anything do you think is wrong with my analogy? I doubt most people here support strict liability for bugs in code.
