To say this is a problem is a gigantic understatement. We live in the golden age of AI slop. Hopefully we will soon gain the right control the algorithms that control our online life in order to filter out AI slop to a large degree.

I have just updated Snap's neural networks extension with the capability for multinomial classification. You can now generate a block that directly reports the class name of a sample record for data sets with three or more categories.

I have just now released Snap! v11, featuring an alternative way to build your own blocks: Instead of writing an algorithm you can let a neural network figure it all out directly from a dataset of examples. Can't wait to show y’all next week at SnapCon in Heidelberg!
