I wonder if Lawslop is gonna become a mainstream expression. Anyone got a better term?

		Drop the s and p. Just law. It’s cleaner.

What do you mean by “lawslop”?

▲

samtp 3 hours ago | parent [-]

You know exactly what they mean. But if somehow you miraculously don't there are hundreds of stories like this:

Aren’t hallucinations different than slop?

So no, I don’t know what they mean.

▲

samtp 3 hours ago | parent [-]

hallucinations are a subset of slop

▲

williamcotton 3 hours ago | parent [-]

So is there other “lawslop” or is it just hallucinations in this context?

▲

samtp 3 hours ago | parent [-]

You must have a greater critical thinking ability than what you are showing now.

Why be so unkind?

▲

Apologies for the candor but you're being willfully obtuse.

▲

I’m honestly looking for an actual example of something other than hallucinations! There are no examples in this entire thread! It’s just cynicism.

I mean this is the first google result for AI law slop and it's not citing a hallucination:

It's everywhere and not hard to find if you make even the most modest effort.

Ok, so, “gibberish” in this case?

Honestly, this word has lost all meaning, outside of perhaps “any use of AI”.

Well at least I know where team “lawslop” is coming from. Thanks, I guess?

		Like I said before, you're being willfully dense in the context of this conversation.

i hope that someone can come up with something catchier than "thing-slop" or "slop-thing". the word has become basically meaningless from overuse.

I love the slop word, to me it means effortless, average.

People confuse slop with "bad", but slop isn't bad per se, it only becomes bad when real effort was required.

▲

I mean the literal definition for slop as a noun does have a very negative connotation.

> broadly : a product of little or no value

> food waste (such as garbage) fed to animals

> excreted body waste

Right. Pigs enjoy eating their slop. It’s not bad from their point of view.

	▲	samtp 38 minutes ago \| parent [-]
		Pig would much rather not eat slop. They are very intelligent animals.
