When I see those slop thumbnails I assume the article is garbage.

Normally only because I follow hashtags, not because of anyone I follow directly.

*: but I recognise people’s interpretation of rarely/regularly will depend on their opinions. Seeing any at all feels like too regular to me.

I see little of the former, and alot of the latter.

I do sometimes see LLM generated text being quoted, identified as such, and with some human commentary.

EDIT: I was only thinking of text. I do see generated images in blog post thumbnails a little more often.

Mostly in the form of slop thumbnail images for articles that people have linked to.
