Tangent: your use of the word "tripe" here is spot-on.

The secondary definition (nonsense) works, but I'm talking about the apt metaphor of its primary definition: offal that's technically edible but comes from low-quality parts of the digestive system which are literally filled with feces.

LLM-generated SEO spam should always be called "tripe".



Honestly, a lot of this isn't LLM stuff. It's "people being paid pittance".


Good point; maybe all clickbait and SEO spam, regardless of human provenance, counts as "tripe".
