Yup, any day now people will suddenly realize that LLMs suck and you were right all along. Any day now..

Yup, I can wait a while. Took some 7-8 years for people to turn on Facebook.

It's not that LLMs are bad, they're very useful. It's that the media they produce is, in fact, slop.

I want to watch Breaking Bad, not AI generated YouTube shorts. I want to listen to "On the Radio" by Donna Summer, not some Spotify generated piano solo. I want to read a high quality blog post about tech with a unique perspective, not an LLM summary of said blog post that removes all the charm.

The gap in quality, when it comes to entertainment, is truly astronomical. I mean, it's not even kind of close. I would expect literal children to produce content - after all, Mozart was a prodigy.
