I’ve seen some sites/programs mentioned before for this, but thought it may be good to have a solid list.

What tools do we have today to identify slop, whether it’s video, audio, text etc.? I know right now most of us can identify it just because it’s off or feels wrong in some way, but we are going to need better tools in the future to be able to truly tell. Also bonus if it’s an offline tool.

    It’s dotcom 2.0. Just watch. The tech is in its infancy, and everyone’s just run away to looneyville already. It can’t deliver 1/1 trillionth of what everyone’s already imagined it’s supposedly capable of. I mean making photos of Super Mario committing 9/11 or some dumb shit like that, it’s mildly entertaining for all of three or four minutes. But I’ve yet to see how it can actually deliver usable and innovative results on anything. The superior code it supposedly can write is pure spaghetti nonsense. The business analysis it supposedly can produce on a dime is hallucinatory, irrelevant and useless. Often it just spits out random bits of junk that’s largely irrelevant but that it treats as facts.

    Nope, especially looking at the valuation of companies like Nvidia and the like, I think we got ourselves an ol’ fashioned year 2000 like dotcom bust on the horizon at some point.

      That’s pretty much my sentiment. LLMs do have some limited utility but the potential market is comparatively small.

      This is an absolutely massive bubble and watching it pop will be quite spectacular.
