Not plants, too! AI Slop is everywhere

Based on this article by Nicole Frolo at The Verge.

AI-generated content is creating significant problems for plant enthusiasts by promoting scams and spreading misinformation. Online stores use AI images of biologically impossible plants, like pink monsteras, to trick consumers into buying seeds for flora that doesn't exist.

Beyond these scams, AI chatbots and apps often provide inaccurate plant care advice, adding to an ecosystem of unscientific myths. This proliferation of "AI slop" disrupts genuine community engagement on forums and disconnects people from the mindful, hands-on experience of gardening.

Check out the article and see some slop.
