Do you have a formal proof of that?
- skew-aberration 2mo agoPremises: Garbage in implies garbage out (first principle of computer science) The input is possibly, but not necessarily garbage (definition of slop) By the standard methods of modal logic, it follows that it is possible that the output is garbage and therefore slop by definition. QED.
- cgio 2mo agoI am not sure of the premise. You can have a filter which takes garbage in and outputs the clean data from the garbage, a denoiser. Also your definition of slop is not specific to slop. Any input can be garbage, including this human sourced and thought comment.
- skew-aberration 2mo agoNevertheless, the proof is valid and easy to certify
