The MAHA report got me thinking. We need a concise slur for people who blindly copy and paste LLM outputs. It needs to say that the person is lazy, ignorant, gullible, disrespectful, and dishonest all at once. Something along the lines of NPC. Maybe parrot? But that’s not too catchy. Any ideas?
Botpuppets
Clippy (the old Office assistant)
Be better than using slurs.
Asked ChatGPT. It gave me a couple of good ones:
- Bothead
- Promptpuppet
- Promptparrot
- Neuroshill
damn I really like neuroshill but realistically bothead is a lot easier to say.
Yeah, I like it also, bothead was interesting also but comparing it with metalhead would imply the meaning bot enthusiast.
I used my own brain now and came up with promptsimp
🤣 did you blindly follow it, promptpuppet?
‘olafurp’ it is 🤗
I see what you did there. Didn’t it ask you for something else at the end?
LLMBro, … All Profit
Promptsimp
Stupid is pretty accurate.
“slopper”
That’s good, because they serve up sloppy seconds.
I hate sloppers
Ding ding ding, we have a winner.
The premise of this post is almost impressively stupid. You’re trying to make “fetch” happen without even bothering to come up with “fetch” first, while asking the people it’s supposed to catch on with to come up with it for you.
We need another one for people who think posting, “I asked chatGPT and this is what it said…” is in anyway contributing to anything.
I stopped listening to a daily news podcast partly because the hosts did this live on the air. They’d ask ChatGPT for a statistic, then say “ChatGPT says it’s 37% of Americans” or whatever. They never fact-checked it, and based on how consistently wrong LLMs have been in my experience, it called into question everything else they said.
It’s a great way to instantly lose trust in another person’s abilities.
67% of statistics are made up on the spot.
That might be one of the most unhinged used of ChatGPT I’ve seen yet. There’s virtually no linguistic difference between saying one number or another, all possible answers are gonna look identical to the machine. I’d like to see these slopgobblers try to ask the same question several times and see the results
Yeah it’s basically asking “give me a statistic that feeds the current Internet vibe on the topic”
Evertime I tell them that I also have access to chatgpt and if I wanted to ask it I would, I only asked real ppl for answers from real ppl, if you need to ai or even use google, I’m good, I can do that on my own.
The French have a good inside joke. Just call them cat farts.
I see what you did there. But would you call the perpetrators farts or the slop they produce?
That seems to be a subset of the same thing to me.
What’s the difference?
I asked ChatGPT and this is what it said:
An argument for using ChatGPT and sharing its response is that sharing what ChatGPT said can, in fact, contribute meaningfully—just like quoting a book, article, or expert. If the AI’s response adds insight, solves a problem, or sparks discussion, then referencing it is a valid form of contribution. Dismissing it entirely overlooks the evolving role of AI as a tool in public discourse.
I asked grok to summarize this for me, and it said:
Regarding “white genocide” in South Africa, some claim it’s real, citing farm attacks and “Kill the Boer” as evidence. Interestingly, …
There’s a few people at my work who do this. They’ll straight up say it out loud in meetings.
I asked a Llama model on Hugging Face, and this is what it said…
LLMmings
Delusion maxers.
Slop slingers.
Combining yours with the one by @vala@lemmy.world, we get “Slop gobbler”
Slop gobbler
I propose combining the two to make “Slopper.”
Edit: Another comment below made the same suggestion first.
I kinda like Sloppler
Slop slingers are purveyors, slop gobblers are consumers.
Yeah, that might be better. But then we need a name for people who are genuinely convinced by AI junk, since I think “gobbler” implies a willingness to consume.
Slopvangelicals.
Slaptists.
LLM thumpers.
Chatbot Shill
Ai-holes
like this one.
sounds like a word.
also liked llmmings. but it isn’t natural to pronounce
