Slop Evader ავტორი Tega

Slop Evader is a browser add-on that searches the web for content posted before ChatGPT's public release on November 30th, 2022. It pushes back against false narratives of progress and assumes that the quality of the internet as an information retrieval tool has been in rapid decline since the public uptake of generative AI (see dead internet theory).

As media like images, video, and text become untethered from reality, they become potentially generated from unknown datasets and contexts. The cognitive load of searching, encountering, and assessing media has increased substantially. Every time you encounter content, you must now ask yourself – is this real or AI-generated? Is this old or new? Where did this come from?

Slop Evader offers some respite. If you want to browse the web before the age of generated media, this tool is for you.
