Doesn’t excuse you not tagging it.
People don’t want to see slop and the bare minimum you can do is tag is accordingly.
How does tagging work?
People can filter out words in the title. So simply adding “GenAi” to the title is enough.
Ok. I did that. Now can you tell my why the hate on using AI? If I didn't have it I just would never have posted my original content that I found funny and sharable.
Thanks.
Do you really need to have a list of why people are sick of Ai slop?
Ai is literally making people dumber:

They are a massive privacy risk:

Are being used to push fascist ideologies into every aspect of the internet:

And they are a massive environmental disaster:

If you are unable to make the content yourself then it’s not worth making. Either pass the ideas onto someone that can or learn to draw and stop destroying the environment with this slop.
