this summarizes most cases of ai “success”. people see generative ai generating good results once and then extrapolate that they’re able to consistently generate good results, but the reality is that most of what it generates is bullshit and the cases of success are a minority of the “content” ai is generating, curated by actual people
Curated by experts, specifically. Seeing a lot of people use this stuff and flop, even if they’re not doing it with any intention to spam.
I think the curl project gets a lot of spam because 1) it has a bug bounty with a payout and 2) kinda fits with CVE bloat phenomenon where people want the prestige of “discovering” bugs so that they can put it on their resumes to get jobs, or whatever. As usual, the monetary incentive is the root of the evil.
