Don't read this Startup Slop

Read Original

The article details the author's experience of having their entire website banned from the tech community Lobste.rs, labeled as 'startup slop' for using AI agents to help write blog posts. It explores the definition of 'slop,' argues for judging content on its merits rather than its creation method, and discusses the broader societal tensions around AI-assisted content creation in the tech community.
