Too damn much, and the worst part is we have so few search algorithms and the top two or three embrace AI so all the top results get clogged with slop.

Their automated detection is great but a human can also see a common pattern on most of them:

User searches “Can you X?”

AI search results:

"HomeforX dot org (random nonsense name including the term, sometimes with a cheap nonstandard address extension like .shop or .tech)

Deciding if it is the right time to use X?

In this article, we will discuss the pros and cons of using X to perform Y. We will cover topics ranging from traditional X to more advanced X staging processes.

Why would you use X to perform Y?

Y is a necessary majntenance for your R and using X is a popular process to perform this maintenance. Other processes such as Q and ∆ will not be discussed. Some sources say X is no longer the best method to perform Y.

How common is X?

X ks performed in most English speaking countries primarily since the year 19XX. X was invented by Xton Xerson as a method to Y.

How do you X?

First, turn off power and water. You can X by connecting the X attachment valve to the line in the middle of Y junction blah blah blah (no visuals attached or common image search result with no attribition)"

Like fr they all fucking sound the same, its the worst prose imagineable. It constantly restates the question and repeats itself sometimes contradictory.

Everytime I see these results I report them as slop.

The sad news is that this was already visible before AI became widespread. It was trivial to search anything, like “how to do X in game Y” and the top 12 results being the same regurgitated trash that didn’t tell you what you wanted. Looking for credible information on certain foods or plants also resulted in similar nonsense even before 2020. Automated SEO garbage
