Recently deepwiki links started popping up in my search results, when I wanted to research some software. They offered so much genenerated 'documentation' that it caused so much confusion and irritation to me, I installed an extension just to block this site from my search results.
Why do I ever need to read the 'architecture' or whatever from an ancient no longer maintained project. The deepwiki page didn't mention that it isn't maintained, but the readme.md in the repo states it clearly at the very top with big letters...
Any suggestion for a browser plugin that blocks AIslop pages from search results? I think we really need some kind of ad block for this, but differently. A well maintained list of pages containing AI slop and then filtering out those pages from search results instead. So that the internet becomes/remains usable and mostly unpoisend by this stuff.
AIslop should never outrank human created content.
I am not someone that cries about the end times much, but... If this issues isn't addressed effectively and the internet becomes filled with aislop that outrank and thus hide human content... it becomes useless... We might really have to look for a new one....
The internet is for connecting humans through their machines. If it starts to exist without requiring humans, then it can be its own thing and humans have to find something else then.

Kagi (paid search engine) downranks AI generated content.
Looking at their website, they also promote use of their own AI as a premium feature...
