Slopfarms on the Web Almost Always Generate Anti-Linux FUD When They Produce "Linux" Output
LLM slopfarms are typically controlled by a Microsoft LLM (Scam Altman was hired by Microsoft and worked all along for his masters at Redmond). Maybe Microsoft knew why to create so much hype around LLMs, even if they're useful for nothing except generating (and potentially spreading) misinformation. Bad actors typically thrive in misinformation; it also helps them discredit science, education, and authorities.
Consider this example from a notorious slopfarm that Google News keeps promoting despite 100% of its text and images being slop!
Only hours ago:
This slopfarm and its sister slopfarm just spew out anti-Linux articles every day. Those are not articles, they're LLM slop. Google News does not mind. It has been promoting both for months already.
Google News promotes not only classic slopfarms. It also ranks BetaNews highly despite many of its articles being LLM slop. Here's the latest example about "hackers", "rootkit", and "Linux", complete with slop images from the Serial Slopper: (probably based on articles such as this; it lacks any attribution there, another symptom or a characteristic of slop)
It's junk.
Last but not least for tonight, consider "Open Source For You". Last night we wrote about it becoming a slopfarm (that became increasingly obvious this past week) and hours ago it was crystal clear that "Open Source For You" is indeed dead. Another LLM slop payload with all the classic giveaways, and it wasn't just this one example.
They just produce slop about slop ("AI" talking about "AI"). Do they seriously expect an actual human to want to read it?
What's the latest there?
Pushing Windows in "Ubuntu" clothing (the title is misleading):
It's classic slop:
Followed by images showing Windows, not Ubuntu.
