If there's one phrase that has become universally accepted and perhaps retarded the glorifying of AI, it's the phrase 'AI slop'.
Whoever came up with this simple two word statement unknowingly captured the zeitgeist of people's credulity towards the technology, globally.

...for extra encryptyness!

That is all.

Reminds me of a fun Disney movie from the early 70s with Kurt Russell and his groovy friends chasing a bank robber in an invisible car.

Spoiler bits... I didn't know anything about the story apart from it was by Andy Weir, and that it had the premise that life on Earth was under threat from something. No-one warned me it wasn't a serious movie, which I assumed it was, given the above. I wish I had known this and I would have viewed it differently.
So I was a bit nonplussed at it being somewhat corny: The alien goes "Rocky! and not the movie!" amongst the things it has learned from Gosling. The religiosity bit with "Do you believe in God" was unneeded, as was the female scientist karioke singing. 15 minutes to half an hour could have been cut as it is a long movie. All in all, it was just ...so american.

Powershell was well, powerful but the one thing that really annoyed the crap out of me was the ridiculous error verbosity. A syntax error generated, what, SEVEN lines of output?!
It could have taken a lesson from VAX/VMS DCL error messages which were configurable verbosity.

Merriam Webster are late to the party on this one, the Australian Macquarie Dictionary has already published its 'Word Of The Year' for 2025 as 'AI slop' last month:

As an Australian I've not been to the States since the mid 60s so I expect it's changed a bit since then.
For years I've would have loved to visit to see museums and national parks but I then think I about the practice of tipping, and also the death penalty, and my brain freezes and goes
Yeah.. Nah.. Imagine walking down the street in the USA and thinking the government can legally kill you., or having to figure out how much to tip even if I don't want to.

The Jetson One personal quadcopter folks still haven't fitted propeller guards to their unit, despite people commenting about this on their videos over the last few years. Perhaps they'll see this and finally get the message?

...who understand the higher the lander's center of gravity, the more chance there is of tipping over.
Oh and to put large well-dished pads on the legs, not small flat plates.

Sorry I can't understand your question, please try again

A short while ago it was proposed that blasting a bazillion bits of iron oxide dust into Mars atmosphere would raise the temperature, a step on the way to terraforming that planet.
But doing the same thing here except with diamond would apparently cool the Earth instead?

I would have imagined 25 to 50 percent. Seems they are getting off pretty darn lightly to me.

. . . How does it feel?
To be on your own?
With no direction home?
