   I'm getting tired of the constant stream of low-effort anti AI posts. ("Metaslop" if you will.)

      Same feeling about low effort pro-AI posts. Low effort comments too. Low-effort comments being just reactionary one-liners. What do you mean by "low-effort anti AI posts"? HN front page used to be more diverse topics that were generally interesting. Now it seems like it's "Hey Anthropic just released a new model" "Hey OpenAI just did X with model that is questionable" Or "X did AI X with X-y thing". Low-effort is for real a problem.

         Obviously I was referring to the post I was commenting on as a low effort anti AI post.

            But not as obvious is why you consider it low-effort. Indeed, one must be able to articulate their dissatisfaction in order to propagate consensus and thereby action.

                  Not sure why you are referencing this Wikipedia article and I would hate to infer your meaning. Please tell me more.
