AI content detectors seem to have very different opinions about the article.
But thank you for bringing this site to my attention. It appears terrible.
The website you linked appears to be slop itself. Insubstantive, rambling, exhibiting all the hallmarks of slop ("it's not X, EMDASH, it's Y"). And it's apparently pro AI (read: pro slop), Complaining that people dare "judge origin, not quality."
In three consecutive sentences, Slopsite insists AI can "produce useful, substantive content when prompted well", regurgitates a slop phrase ("about X not Y" style), and then gets weirdly misanthropic ("Humans write slop too").
But okay, let's listen to them and see it judge content not quality:
Low slop.
Not slop. 0/20 (perfect) score on "vocabulary diversity".
Bonus: Slopsite is the worst AI slop (I repeat myself). It uses an AI-generated list of examples of slop, and most of them point to nonexistent URLs.
It was 2025.
This links to a nonexistent article with "2024" in the URL.
