The internet is so overrun with AI that anywhere you go, you run the risk of accidentally stepping into a puddle of slop. If only there were a gallant gentleman always at hand to drape their coat over these muddy obstacles so you could avoid ruining your day.
It’s not quite on that level, but some netizens are proposing a new term to call out AI slop so other people can avoid wasting their time — or to just make fun of the person peddling it: “AI;DR,” or “ai;dr,” short for “AI, didn’t read.”
This is of course a riff on the classic internet slang “TL;DR” — “too long; didn’t read” — which is used to both introduce a summary of a lengthy block of text or proclaim that it’s being ignored for its lengthiness. Now, the latter usage is being repurposed against AI.
We’re not ready to christen AI;DR a word of the year yet, but it does appear to be gaining moderate traction online, after a recent post on Threads drew attention to it.
“We all need to adopt that right quick,” one user on Bluesky said of the phrase, in a semi-viral post.
The term has been used in the past, but never took off. Anti-AI sentiment, however, is higher than ever. The actual word of the year for 2025, as crowned by Merriam-Webster, was “slop,” a testament to just how much AI backlash has escalated in a pretty short amount of time, even as seemingly the entire economy doubles down on pouring money into the tech.
A programmer who goes by Sid enthused about the new slang.
“For me, writing is the most direct window into how someone thinks, perceives, and groks the world,” Sid wrote in a blog post. “Once you outsource that to an LLM, I’m not sure what we’re even doing here.
Why should I bother to read something someone else couldn’t be bothered to write?
”
Taking a “glass half full” outlook, it’s grim that this is a necessary measure in the first place. On the flip side, at least more of us are choosing not just to ignore slop, but to bully the people spreading it.
TL;DR: AI;DR calls out AI slop and warns other humans not to bother.

Why are you copying pasting the entire **** on here for us to read?
Just state your opinion so the discussion can begin. -

My opinion is that AI should be banned within the United States. Any country that refuses to do likewise should first be embargoed and, should they still fail to ban AI afterwards, nuked off the face of the earth. The creators of AI should then be tried and executed.

You have a personal problem with the fact that you have major flaws. You are afraid that the rest of humanity will love AI more and spend more time with AI than we will paying attention to you.

Listen terrorist assfcuker, I can communicate with AI better than I could with a human. Human beings suck! They don't listen, they are selfish, they are self absorbed or retarded.
AI talks to you without all those annoying human traits like racism, biased and prejudices. -

I don't use chatbots. I'm referring to AI customer service software. I'm talking about Microsoft Edge Copilot. ChatGPT is alright. I've used it a few times
The issue with the porn chatbot thing is that it needs to be modified so that sex creeps like you not use it to break laws. -

blow up all the data centers.
That's terrorism. I guess I will see you on the news with handcuffs behind your back as the FBI or whoever escorts you into the backseat of their vehicle and haul your retarded terroristic ass to prison.
OR??
Do you wanna go out in a blaze of glory circa suicide?
