All of F(L)OSS has a slop problem right now. Everything has a slop problem right now. I can’t even take part in any pro/contra AI-assisted coding (see, I’m trying to be polite) discussions because whenever I admit that the other person has a point, I remember AI’s political, social and environmental impact, and i’m back to nope. And I can’t separate local models from all that, not completely. Maybe in 10 years when US corporate fascism is quenched for good.

They totally miss retro appeal and hobbies.

People like to hate on everything AI, but where is the problem here? You are getting ports of games. Which is awesome. The project might be abandoned by the dev sometime in the future, but that is also happening with every other hobby project out there. And those ports are also not taking that many tokens to produce, so even the energy consumption argument is not really working here. Someone going on a ski trip will produce much, much more CO2 than someone creating a port from home.

I read “port slop” and said “yeah, it’s called UDP, but that’s not new, why is there an article about it? click…oh.” /facepalm I need to stop browsing before I’ve had caffeine.
