Not only is this wrong on multiple levels (there are lots of new ai-slop apps flooding the internet, and marketplaces e.g. steam has ~10k games marked as using ai), but it's always cringe when someone names something after themselves like this.
See contradicting data here: https://mikelovesrobots.substack.com/p/wheres-the-shovelware...
Companies like lovable are reporting millions of projects that are basically slop apps. They're just not released as real products with an independent company.
The data is misleading - it's like saying high-quality phone cameras had no impact on the video industry. Just look at how much of network tv is filmed with iphone cameras. At best you might have some ads, and some minor projects using it, but nothing big. Completely ignoring that youtube or tiktok are built off of people's phone cameras and their revenue rivals major networks.
I am sorry, I just don't want to have this conversation about AI and it's impact for the millionth time because it just devolves into semantics, word games, etc. It's just so tiring.

There's a world of difference between the technical capabilities of a technology, and people actually executing it.
Companies can release games with crap performance because nobody else is making the same game as them. The idea being put forth here is that, with AI, you can just clone someone's product for nothing. So why isn't that happening?
