Medium used to be a decent platform full of high quality articles. Then the quality started to drop. These days, it's full of AI slops, the ones with lower quality.

This is an article I stumbled upon recently: https://medium.com/@saraswatp/understanding-scaled-dot-produ...

Apparently the author did not bother to do basic proofreading of the article even once before posting it.

Yet it showed up at the top of my Google search results. I guess that's the state of today's Internet in a nutshell.

The content beast just needs to be fed. Volume seems to be king.

Even this article is mostly just tech gossip, even if it were human generated.

yeah, this is sad and it applies to most platforms who offer user generated content for money (or ad impressions). Not only is the quality decreasing, also it hides actual content from writers that care and put work into their articles.

entshitification at its best...
