People talk about LLM hallucinations as if they're a new problem, but content mill blog posts existed 15 years ago, and they read like LLM bullshit back then, and they still exist.

(which can give you the same links formatted in a more legible fashion if you need to verify.)

What people call "AI slop" existed before AI and AI where I control the prompt is getting to be better than what you will find on those sorts of websites.
