oghunt is now using google gemini to validate every product launch of the day to ensure there is ZERO AI slop.
Also view the top 3 non-ai launches of the day!
Lots of work went into this release so please share any feedback you might have.
What qualifies as AI Slop though? Genuinely curious as I'm building AI products.
I believe AI products do have a lot of value even if it's just the UX that is being optimized with AI (copilots etc.)
P.S: If you're using AI for your own product, aren't you being a hypocrite?

@dhruv_bhatia Yeah this was my thought. What is the "Slop" line that delineates something of quality vs something terrible.
Is there some reason AI built tools can't be quality? If it solves a problem for someone and they find it useful, is it still slop because Claude wrote the code?

Using AI to filter out AI? Most users here can distinguish quality content themselves. Not all AI tools produce slop, so how would those be filtered? The site is well-designed and seems helpful, so well done!
That said, nearly all platforms use AI at some level. Top-notch platforms aren't "vibe coded," but that doesn't mean engineers aren't using tools like Cursor to autocomplete significant portions of their work.
AI is part of our world now. Calling everything built with AI "slop" just hits me wrong, but thats me.

What if the AI slop isn't core to much of the product but has become table stakes for the industry / to compete - as we still considered slop?

Curious to test this out on our launch next week and see whether it considers us AI slop or not (we most definitely aren't!) -- i'll let you know!

I guess we can rest assured that AI didn't write the video script?
