Why would AI generate source code? Why not generate binaries directly if no one will read it?
These days, I worry less about my code containing slop, and more about dependencies I use becoming slopped. I worry about AWS, having a great track record pre-AI-layoffs, now having outages three times in as many months. I can eschew the slop in my own projects, but as this article points out, we all use code and frameworks that we didn't write.
