Slop it up and sell it: criticism of no-standards AI-assisted coding
wavefnx · x · 2026-11-13
Developer wavefnx satirizes an emerging AI-assisted development style: no code-quality or performance standards, just generate slop quickly — if it turns on, great; if not, Ralph-loop it until it does. Then sell the fact that it turns on, and when it gets exploited, claim no malice intended.
The jab captures the growing tension between "it runs, ship it" AI coding culture and engineering rigor, plus the security risk of low-standard code being monetized.
