often, it's due to it's recommender systems.

how do you define AI slop?
imo, it's something that was purely crafted by AI.
so, if you asked it to make a draft shorter, it's not slop.
but if you went to AI & said, "write me a post," then yes, slop.
but even that is nuanced, because if you edit it, it's not slop. right...?

we often get asked why we're publishing a new edition. or what's new. or if there's "a point" to getting the new edition. or some variation thereof.
elton does a good job here summarizing 1. why the book matters and 2. what the second edition has that the first doesn't.
