AI Slop Is a Shipping Problem
Bad AI writing often looks finished. Clean grammar and neat structure can hide empty claims, repeated rhythms, vague verbs, and a conclusion that could fit almost any topic. This audio essay treats AI slop as a shipping problem, not a prompting problem. Gaurav walks through a practical five-rule edit for prose, product copy, documentation, interface text, and code comments. You will hear the information-density and rhythm tests, a 47-word pricing paragraph reduced to the facts a buyer needs, and the eight questions to run before any AI-assisted draft ships.
