“zzt how dare you accuse Mozilla employees of suffering from very obvious LLM psychosis”

[nyquildotorg@gts.nyquil.org]

@zzt saying the bad guys are "filling the internet with slop" on a page with a big slop video at the top is sure something

@errant @eldersea @zzt "Yes / Yes, but later"

@zzt
It's nothing. It's nothing by people who wouldn't know something if they had to pay somebody to do it.

@zzt I’ll never forgive the tech industry for replacing writers & editors like me with this drivel. I never truly knew how unnecessary my skills were considered to be until LLMs came along and ripped the mask off. This whole thing hurts to look at and to read… and it doesn’t matter to them. They think it’s good.

I’m bitter to be pushed out of tech but very glad not to be forced to create this soulless lifeless garbage.

@zzt mozilla try to actually work on firefox challenge [IMPOSSIBLE]

[mattcjordan@hachyderm.io]

@zzt “unforced error” comes to mind after opening that page.

[rycochet@furs.social]

@zzt 'Behold computer nerds, we are just like you with our ascii and pandas! Open wide ato drink from the fountain of slop and think of when Firefox was a low bloat breath of fresh air rather than the exhalation of AI diminished techbros who have spent the past 5 years exclusively breathing their own farts!'

@zzt That body text reads like LLM extruded word forms.

[zzt@mas.to]

firefox users: please make the LLM features in firefox a non-default plugin, opt-in, or better yet don’t do them at all

mozilla: DO NOT ACCEPT DEFAULT SETTINGS. slop is destroying the web! *posts a bunch of slop videos and text in an annual corporate update*

mozilla staff: we asked our community and they hallucinated that they don’t like AI even though we prompted them to not hallucinate.

mozilla’s remaining fan: why are you so angry at my best friend mozilla. stop being unreasonable.

[gourd@indiepocalypse.social]

@zzt I've rarely seen a website as so eminently deserving of a noogie as this fake captcha nonsense. Good lord.

[theorangetheme@en.osm.town]

@zzt Slopzilla*

[theorangetheme@en.osm.town]

@zzt Or MoziLLM. We can workshop it.

[semievolved@wandering.shop]

@zzt "While we are still guided by full manifesto, five principles are especially relevant in the age of AI:"

*lists three*

Tell me your copy was written by AI without telling me.

[zzt@mas.to]

@semievolved oh that’s fucking incredible

this site is fractally terrible, the longer you look at it the worse it gets

[bnys@lasersword.club]

@zzt how much did they pay consultants to come up with this trash garbage

[byte@awawa.club]

@zzt timecube had more sense in it than this shite

[stepheneb@ruby.social]

@zzt

Umm … that’s obviously satire right … right?! … oh dear … it’s just accelerating into Idiocracy … sigh

[zzt@mas.to]

@bnys according to the financial numbers they’ve sporadically released: literally millions of dollars each are going to the people directly responsible for this, as the few pure browser developers left at mozilla (who are excellent people in a terrible situation) make far less than they should

[jordan@sometimes.social]

@semievolved @zzt directive 4 is classified, just like Robocop

[tehstu@hachyderm.io]

@zzt Viewing on my Pi, I was curious if the slop video at the top continued to play while I scrolled further down the article. I couldn't quite figure it out using the scroll wheel (moves too far), so tried with the scrollbar.

I say tried, because it's been a while since I used it in Firefox and it's now desperately thin. Just to add to the torrent of paper cuts.
