I don't know... It seems to be fairly entertaining, judging by the number of image album views and the number of comments here.

Causing annoyance by posting AI slop then having to justify it should not be mistaken for entertainment, it’s closer to trolling.

And I've gotten a lot of upvotes for explaining why it's annoying. Perhaps these are not the measures of truth you are looking for.

Yes, that is a part of the measure I have in mind. Let me be more concrete.

Terms:

- P: Number of positive votes (of any comment)

- N: Number of negative votes (of any comment)

- V: Number of views of the image album

- C: Number of comments in the thread

Formula:

    w1 * P + w2 * N + w3 * V + w4 * C

My weights:

   (w1, w2, w3, w4) = (1, 1, 1, 3)

(Comments are harder to do than votes.)

This is a formula that optimizes for trolling. If you insist on using it, expect more downvotes in the future.

		The formula is generic; my weights are for measuring engagement. (And, yes, I am very scared by the future downvotes.)
