I'm fine with using AI for code, where the quality will likely be better than those of academics.

But writing.. FFS everything I see is just AI slop. And I only realize when I start wondering why the paper is going and going and saying nothing, and then pangram tells me that everything past the intro is just AI. :/

The glass half full take is that we are very lucky that there is some much literature that pre-dates LLMs. Our brains are tuned to enjoy that more. People who grow up with LLM slop from the start won't necessarily see it the same way.

		Yup. I can read novels from the 1st century [1] or from the 19th century [2] or from the 1970s [3] for the rest of my life (well, until they get banned).
