I agree. However, it's gotten so bad that people are calling out AI slop on things they just don't care for — or mistake human writing for AI — which paradoxically becomes its own red flag to ignore the comment, even if there are valid points within.

I just used the em dash twice, and have been doing so for 35 years. This is now supposedly a dead give-away for slop.

Call it slop when it's slop. When it's not total garbage, give it a rest.
