@shivjm@mastodon.social I’m aware that some other publications have published slop, but I don’t think CSS-Tricks has. I know Geoff would be most disappointed if it were published.
I know that some actual authors have been accused of using LLMs where they haven’t, but I’m not sure if these are the same cases you’re speaking of. I can’t recall encountering any slop.

@vale@fedi.vale.rocks I can readily believe that no one on the team *deliberately* published slop but, frankly speaking, I think it’s easy to see from outside the editorial process that CSS-Tricks was had. And look, everyone makes mistakes, but defending obvious slop after it’s pointed out doesn’t inspire faith. I’ll put links in a separate private message so you can see what I’m referring to.
