Isn't a large user base and the data collected from those users a moat of sorts?

A moat is when you have something other's can't easily get.

Every MAG 7 / FAANG company already has more users and more data...

That's not a moat.

That's traction.

That's not X.

That's Y.

Been a bit out of the loop.

What's wrong with using very short sentences like 'That's not X. That's Y.'?

Commonly used phrase by LLMs. Gives people slop vibes these days.

I fear the day that large parts of perfectly valid English language and punctuation are off limits for humans to use because LLMs use them too (having learned them from humans), and somebody will always whine and post low effort "slop" comments that are much more annoying and less useful than the slop itself, or even incorrectly whine about human written text that happens to match your hyper-sensitive slop detector.

Plus you are always running the risk of being rude and insulting when incorrectly labeling text actually written by humans as slop — making a jackass of yourself — and opening yourself up to being trolled by humans purposefully inserting em-dashes and catch phrases just to trigger you. That's not clever. That's gullible.

How much cognitive and physical effort and time do you put into trying to figure out if everything you read is slop, then complaining about it? If that's your job or calling in life, you could be easily replaced with AI. Find something more creative to do with your time.

If you really object to low effort slop, and not just relish it as an opportunity to whine, then how about instead of posting low effort whines about slop, you put in the actual effort to do something about it, and rewrite the slop in a way that won't trigger your slop detector, then post that instead, to train AI not to write slop.

Is your problem that it's slop, or that it's AI generated? Because your whining about low effort AI generated slop without contributing to the conversation or addressing the point of the comment you're replying to is just low effort human generated slop.

Please don't post slop while complaining about slop.

Honestly the data itself is probably worth heaps even in the company itself collapses. Early attention engineering when humans were still in the loop!!!

> Early attention engineering when humans were still in the loop

Exactly. Cursor was the first product used by tons of devs on real codebases. Just the signal "acceptance rate" is huge and can't be easily captured w/ synthetic data.
