Nathan Adams @dinnerbone.com · Jun 30 I almost fell for a scam site today, pretending to be the homepage of an OSS project that I was looking for. It looked convincing until I scrolled to read more text. LLM slop is getting scary good at "looks good at a glance". I don't even know _how_ they managed this. Feeding LLM into LLM somehow?

hey dinnerbone how are you today?
A few days ago I stumbled upon a similar website that is pretending to be the homepage of one of my mods. Luckily in this case there isn't malware (the JAR match one of my official JARs). But same LLM slop and all, and also lots of AI-generated pictures... Bit worrying about the future.
It’s a sad world we are living, and it’s sad to see Google, Meta, and even Microsoft support LLMs as they are now even when warned about the dangers that they could pose
Good that you told this story so that everyone who is smart like you are, can be extra careful 😌
This was the first hit for me when I googled DxWnd, a tool I heard about to help me play an old game on a modern computer. The other hit I found was a _different_ LLM generated website for this tool. The commonality? They both list the same email address. Googling that email and... holy crap!
