    Sadly while the example: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;below-the-surface-ocean.openai.chatgpt.site" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;below-the-surface-ocean.openai.chatgpt.site can be detected as SLOP on the first contact of photon with the retina, I honestly cannot detect <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;frame-studio-motion.openai.chatgpt.site" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;frame-studio-motion.openai.chatgpt.site and it is giving me depression. The website is basic, but it doesn&#x27;t feel slop. And I guess that is something.

    I&#x27;m genuinely sad that what we learned with hard work and sweat, our craft, our identity, our soul; is now something you can buy. I&#x27;ve been in this profession for a long time and now I see people who have absolutely no fucking clue, but lots of money, and they buy all these agents and make things that work (way more broken, with absolutely shit quality), but they work and so they brag about their creations to me all day long, and man that makes me feel like a total loser.

    I spent decades trying to master media theory, language design, computer graphics, compiler design, rewriting systems, mathematics, logic, build systems, graphs, data-flow systems, making GUI kits, layout systems, ... all to make a better system for thinking, and now the whole idea of thinking is outsourced (as altman says &quot;sold as utility by the meter&quot;). I need to become an addict or something and be wasted. This is not a life.

      Forget the design, you can always tell these are slop by just reading the copy.

      I agree the second site is nice looking though.
