alt Hacker NewsIf it's slop, why do they pay for it?
I mean, raise you hand if you have never paid for AI "slop", I see maybe a hand or two in this room of tens of thousands.
It's a strawman to frame it as AI labs get everything and society gets nothing. Bruh, the fastest growing applications of all time didn't explode in popularity because they "offer nothing of value". I'm not giving you an argument, I'm giving you a reality check.

Fast food sells like crazy even though everyone largely agrees it's not the best. People aren't always rational with their purchases.
