No point in reading anything AI related anymore. It's all slop. We need to retvrn to rss feeds

  what would returning to rss feeds achieve?

    Force the clankers to support rss!

    The pattern that RSS feeds best supports is subscribing to individual creators who produce things you value. Presumably, if you don't like AI word-vomit, you wouldn't subscribe to a blog that uses it heavily. This is in contrast to the social-media state of affairs (like HN, reddit, twitter, etc), wherein much of the posts you read are recommended to you by either a person or an algorithm, regardless of whether you believe that author will write something you like. A shorter way of writing this is that RSS promotes writing stuff good enough to get into somebody's "favorite authors" list, and social media instead incentivizes "lots of people will share this."

      I actually couldn't have said it better. I'm brain rotted from LLM usage

      Indeed. The other problem with the social-media way is that it gives outsized weight to headlines and soundbites.

  Is there a study demonstrating that AI-assisted articles are less substantive or is it purely a kneejerk bias towards humanslop?
