This article reads like OP was expecting us to build God through an app or something. When, if you're like me, you don't share your slop apps cause its kind of rude. You use them for yourself and keep it quiet for fear of being chastised.
I use my slop apps every day at work. My boss was pretty impressed when I was sharing my screen and I told AI to invoke a bunch of utilities I had built and pull together a report based on the output and set that to work while we did other things. It does a pretty good job for slop. It keeps trying to infer things and provide bad analysis based on bad inferences, but the data it pulls and the spreadsheets it builds are pretty solid.
Viva la slop.
