@veronica@explains.social For non fiction, a lot of slop tends to be padded with platitudes and superlatives, with little logic to the details added. E.g. an LLM written article about an iron-age archaeological site might say that the site "demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship and city planning" or use a whole paragraph to tell us that its fortifications suggest (vague) enemies were a threat or the site had a (vague) centralized authority.
