Who says what degree of complexity is enough? Seems like deferring the problem to some other mystical arbiter.

In my opinion AI slop is slop not because AIs are basic but because the prompt is minimal. A human went and put minimal effort into making something with an AI and put it online, producing slop, because the actual informational content is very low.

And you'd be disagreeing with the vast amount of research into AI. [0]

This article doesn't mention "slop" at all.

		But it does mention that prompt complexity is not related to the output. It does say that there is a maximal complexity that LLMs can have - which leads us back to... Intelligence requires organizational complexity that LLMs are not capable of.
