There's very little evidence, if any, to suggest that slop is actually "good enough". I have interacted with multiple apps that clearly were written using AI by people who did not actually spend the time understanding what was made, and it most certainly was not an experience that I would classify as "good enough".

I know this may be some kind of reverse survivorship bias and that I simply do not notice all of the slop around me that somehow is truly "good enough", but I think I need to see some concrete examples to convince me.

That kind of proves the opposite point: you’re using those apps so they were good enough for the people who made it to get to you who would probably never even be able go write an app. Also are you comparing the apps to your average, bug ridden app written before LLMs existed? Maybe they’re not that much worse.

Do you care about each and every single app you encounter?

Maybe you use your 2-10 apps and that’s it? Do you even let’s say — for the excercise sake — use those apps fully, each and every screen?

I use dozens of apps, most of functionality from the ones I need is a single flow or function.

I don’t care about setting my avatars or filling „user details” unless it is a delivery app or a shop. Most frameworks have boilerplate for that but there are dozens of such screens that don’t have boilerplate yet those are nice to have even if not used by 90% of users.
