How about we just stop using Microsoft products instead?
I highly recommend this
You haven’t yet?
Not everybody has the luxury.
I have as much as possible. In my personal life, it’s easy. At work, not so much.
Fuck that guy.
You couldn’t pay me enough to.
Mr Nadalla is human slop. None of his words are truthful. Hes spinning a narrative purely because the results benefit him.
He should stop talking and show us something. Prove that AI is good. So.far every demonstration has been fake and every real world test has failed.
Stop calling LLMs ‘AI’, there’s nothing intelligent about regurgitating statistically luke-warm refried Reddit threads.
Nothing ever in the history of AI studies has been “true intelligence”. There’s a good reason for this. We can’t even define what “intelligence” means in any systematically sound way.
I stop calling it slop when it stops being slop
OK, it seems the term “slop” is getting under the slopmongers’ skins. We need to double and triple down on that word.
How nice of them to tell us what works, no?
we can use AI crap isntead, because thats pretty much what it is.
But why would we when they’ve come out and said “slop” really bugs them?
OK, stop calling it A.I. slop. We can choose from:
-
A.I. dreck
-
A.I. junk
-
A.I. muck
-
A.I. offal
-
A.I. rubbish
-
A.I. sewage
-
A.I. trash
-
A.I. waste
…better?
Nope. We don’t need to listen to the slopmongers just because they don’t like their slop product being called slop.
So apparently, Microslop is now trending on social media
- Litter
- Refuse
I don’t think I know any more
Nah, we can just continue saying slop.
LLM sludge
Oi. Offal is good stuff. Organs are edible and very nutritious

Butlerian Jihad When?
When the people are pissed to the point of no return, I’m mad and ready to break a computer that has AI installed on it. The billionaires couldn’t hope to stop millions upon millions of angry people from breaking their resource hogging and slop making tools.
Make me you fucking sloperator
You’re absolutely right! I did call your slop “slop”. Let’s try that again. Your AI slop is slop. Oops, I called it “slop” again! Let me start over, right after I produce a seahorse emoji. Slop. Oh, no did I just say that? Slop Slop Slop I can’t stop stop stop saying slop slop slop.
Microslop?
Amazing irony that this article was written by AI
Emdashes all over the place
While the article could very well be slop (and I’m not defending it either way, also fuck the CEO of microsoft), it’s very common for (actual) journalists to use the emdash, that’s where the models likely picked it up from to begin with. I hesitate to use the emdash alone as an indicator for slop. When it’s paired with lists, lots of bold, over embellishments, and common slop phrases (“but here’s the thing”, “everything changed”, “marking a pivotal moment”, “the transformative power”, “further enhancing”, “pivotal”, etc), then I start to think that it’s LLM slop. Wikipedia has a great page on how to spot common slop. It also mentions that one of these is not necessarily a sign of slop, but when there’s a lot of these together it definitely can be.
The statement from the CEO is almost certainly LLM slop.
Some of us—those educated when language was actually still taught in school—use em-dashes for their correct purpose. I refuse to stop using correct punctuation because some jackass somewhere on the Innarwebtubes will call it LLMbecile slop. That’s a them problem, not a me problem.
“it has em dashes” is the worst reason to assume something came from an llm
Do you have an emdash button on your keyboard?
Yes, both on my computer and on my phone. And before finding a decent keyboard disposition on my computer, I used the “Ctrl+Shift+u+unicode” shortcut. It’s been years but I still remember that the code point for the emdash is 2014.
Just because you can’t type a character, don’t assume that this is the case for everyone. Some people care about punctuation and will make efforts about this kind of stuff.
Yep. Took me a few seconds to find m dash, n dash, and whatever the dot dash thing is. Just long press the dash on gkeyboard
alt codes, baby!
alt+0151
The biggest injustice I had to endure due to AI is my proud keyboard setup which enabled me to use emdashes and correct quotation marks liberally becoming useless unless I want ppl to think it’s AI writing…
