Greetings,
Recently I've been reading a lot of content, and being really honest, most stuff you find outside the WF is AI Slop made to sell pdfs for 40 USD.
With that in mind, I've been evaluing them by few standards ( it is not fail safe, but worked in like 75% of the time):
1- Who is the author?
Since times immemorial we have been people selling books under a famous person name. But here is not the case. People that makes AI slop are so lazy that they usually don't put an author's name, neither use their names.
Most of the time, they use their AI generated YT channel's name or just don't give authorship to no one.
That being said, checking is(are) the author(s) will give you a hint about the procedence of the book.
2-Check the book cover's image.
Most AI slop uses an "encyclopedia cover", but you can pretty much see that it seems unnatural to that kind of knowledge the book covers. Others may use a variety of AI generated artworks + "medieval-like letters".
3- PDF only.
Not every book that is available only in PDF is a Slop, but every Slop is only available in PDF.
Nobody will print a book written by an AI thinking it'll sell well at the physical market.
4- Not available on Amazon, or only available at their own websites.
That is a red flag for a lot of consumables, tho. In this case is even more expressive.
5- Dark YT channels.
Yes, occult channels are small. But every good occult/wiccan/pagan channel i saw shows their face. Not in every video, but in a couple of them.
Also, most "meditation" videos are swapping from the creative commons straight to the AI generated music", meaning that even that calm 120hz music you use in your rituals might be AI slop.
The idea here is not point fingers like: You don't have a printed version, you're slop!
But is to identify a book and see different combinations of those criteria and judge yourself.
and i hope this helps you guys!
